Giants' Bryan Morris: Designated for assignment

Morris was designated for assignment Friday, Henry Schulman of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Morris had been sharp for the Giants until this past week, when he allowed eight runs and 10 hits over the course of just three outings. In that span, Morris's ERA jumped from 3.44 to 6.43, which spelled the end of his time with the Giants. Still, considering how well he was doing until his collapse over the last few days, Morris may attract some interest on the waiver wire.
