Morton has a 10.89 ERA after five starts this season...2025

2025

2024
"He is currently the fifth-highest paid player on the team behind Austin Riley, Matt Olson, Charlie Morton and Marcell Ozuna."

2023
"And the Cubs have a pretty good chance at winning the rubber game of the series, with Justin Steele on the mound facing Atlanta’s Charlie Morton."

"Braves Notes: Dansby Swanson, Charlie Morton, Kenley Jansen"

2021

"Rays ace Charlie Morton enjoyed the finest season of his career in 2019, tossing 194 2/3 innings of 3."
