David Morgan

Draft Prospects

• Ranked #472 prospect in 2020 draft
  Morgan helped lead Orange Coast (Calif.) JC to a state championship as a freshman. He was the Pirates’ only returning starter this season and helped guide the team through the tragic death of coach John Altobelli in the helicopter crash that also killed former NBA star Kobe Bryant and seven others. Morgan is a good athlete with a plus arm who is a capable defender at both third base and shortstop. He runs well and makes enough contact to project as a below-average but playable hitter. Some teams want to make Morgan a catcher with his athleticism, arm strength and leadership intangibles. He was committed to Oregon but has opted to return to OCC after the coronavirus pandemic shut down the season.
