Scouting grades: Fastball: 50 | Curveball: 45 | Slider: 50 | Changeup: 55 | Control: 50 | Overall: 45

The University of Nevada has sent 20 players to the Majors to date, with Lyle Overbay the most productive big leaguer. There’s been just one first-rounder in school history, right-hander Braden Shipley, taken by the D-backs in 2013. Morris isn’t likely to challenge Shipley’s standing as highest-drafted member of the Wolf Pack, but after spending two years pitching mostly in relief, Morris is in top-five-round conversations. He had brief but solid performances over the summer in the Team USA trials and the Cape Cod League, then showed off solid stuff in the rotation this spring.

Lean and slender, Morris has decent now stuff and, with the ability to add some strength, could throw harder in the future. He’ll run his fastball up to 95-96 mph, sitting around 93, and it can feature hop with decent finish up in the zone. There is a lack of deception, however, and it can be flat, leading to it being hit this year. His breaking stuff can be inconsistent, with some scouts wanting him to focus on his mid-80s slider, which flashes average depth and width. He has a 12-to-6 type of curve with decent shape, but the mid-70s offering doesn’t have enough power for it to be really effective. His changeup might be his best pitch, sold with good arm speed.

With a quick and easy arm, Morris has a delivery he repeats well, which makes for consistent strike-throwing. His results have been spotty as his stuff has been inconsistent, but there is some upside here given his raw stuff and athleticism on the mound.

A reliever for most of his college career at the University of Nevada, Morris got a shot as a starter full-time in 2023 and racked up 85 strikeouts in 81 1/3 innings. Showing off stuff that looked much better than his 5.42 ERA might have indicated that year, Morris was selected by the Mets in the third round of the ‘23 Draft. Midway through his first full season as a professional, Morris was moved at the 2024 Trade Deadline to the A’s, who were high on the right-hander ever since scouting him as a somewhat local product at Pitman HS in Turlock, Calif., for right-hander Paul Blackburn. Morris proved to be a workhorse in his first full year in the A’s system last season, racking up a career-high 150 innings pitched as he began at Double-A Midland and ended at Triple-A Las Vegas.

Morris can run his fastball up to 97 mph, while his sinker sits in the mid 90s with good armside run and generates a ton of ground balls. He’s added a low-80s sweeper as a variation from his mid-80s slider. His mid-70s curveball has improved, as has his upper-80s changeup, though that pitch remains behind his other offerings in terms of effectiveness.

Morris’ demeanor as he struts his wiry 6-foot-3 frame around the mound reminds some within the organization of Mark “The Bird” Fidrych. He is a tenacious competitor and brings some personality whenever he toes the rubber. While he can throw up to seven different pitches, the A’s may try to work on simplifying his arsenal to three or four quality pitches, which should give him a better chance against big league hitters when his time comes.

After spending two years pitching mostly out of the bullpen for the University of Nevada-Reno, Morris worked his way into the rotation in 2023 and posted a 5.42 ERA with 85 strikeouts across 81 1/3 innings. Drafted by the Mets in the third round of the 2023 Draft, he began his first full professional campaign last season at Single-A St. Lucie and was promoted to High-A Brooklyn after six starts before getting sent to the A’s at the Trade Deadline in exchange for right-hander Paul Blackburn. Between Single-A, High-A and even a couple of outings with Triple-A Las Vegas, he combined for a 4.50 ERA with 121 strikeouts and 45 walks over 136 innings.

Morris runs up his four-seam fastball to about 95-96 mph and also throws a sinker with good arm-side run in the 92-95 range. His mid-80s slider has developed into an above-average secondary offering. His mid-70s curveball provides a good variation of pitch speeds, though he is still working to make it a more consistent pitch, along with his improving upper-80s changeup.

Morris is athletic with his 6-foot-3 frame. His competitive drive stands out whenever he takes the mound. Discovering the right arm slot that allows for the most consistency is the next big step in his development. How that pans out as he moves through the system will likely determine his long-term role, though he profiles as a back-end starter given his overall pitch mix and solid control.

Morris pitched primarily out of the Nevada bullpen during his first two seasons on campus, and after brief turns as a starter during the Cape Cod League and Team USA trials, he joined the Wolf Pack rotation as a junior in 2023, posting a 5.42 ERA with 85 strikeouts over 81 1/3 innings. Ranked as MLB Pipeline’s No. 142 Draft prospect, he joined the Mets in the third round and signed for slot at $666,500. He opened his first full season at Single-A St. Lucie and pushed his way to High-A Brooklyn by late May, then was sent to the A’s in the deal for Paul Blackburn.

The 6-foot-3 hurler can run his pair of fastballs up to 95-96 mph but will generally be in the 91-94 range. His sinker, with 17-18 inches of armside run, has been the better pitch of the two heaters, but he’s continued to develop his four-seamer as well. Similarly, he’ll throw three different slider varieties -- hard slider, cutter, sweeper -- with the first on that list the most reliable of the bunch at this stage. His mid-70s curveball remains a work in progress, particularly when it comes to finding a consistent arm slot, and while he didn’t throw his 85-89 mph changeup much in the Florida State League this season, the offering was arguably his best in college, as he sold it well with good arm speed.

Morris shows athleticism on the mound, and his history of throwing strikes has carried into the lower levels of pro ball. His pitch mix is diverse enough to give him starting upside, but he could use a tick or two more of sharpness to become the No. 4 or 5 in a Major League rotation.
