Morris was placed on the voluntary retired list by Triple-A St. Paul on Wednesday, Brandon Warne of Access Twins reports.
The right-hander was acquired from the Blue Jays in early April but opted to retire after going 6-for-45 through 14 games with St. Paul. Morris broke through to the Triple-A level in 2022 but was unable to make his way to the big leagues.

Rotowire
The Blue Jays promoted Morris from Double-A New Hampshire to Triple-A Buffalo on Wednesday, Mitch Bannon of SI.com reports.
The 24-year-old earned his promotion after slashing .312/.430/.468 with five home runs and a 30:30 BB:K across 186 plate appearances for New Hampshire. Morris split time in relatively even fashion between second base and third base and will likely continue to get work at both positions at Triple-A.
