On this day in 1991, the Cubs signed free agent pitcher Mike Morgan. Morgan delivered the best season of his 22-year big league career for the Cubs, winning 16 games in 1992.
Mike Morgan shared the record for playing on the most different teams, until that record was broken by relief pitcher Octavio Dotel in 2012. Dotel has now pitched for 13 different teams. Morgan merely pitched for 12 (Oakland, Yankees, Toronto, Seattle, Baltimore, LA, Cubs, St. Louis, Cinci, Minnesota, Texas, and Arizona). In his 21st season in baseball he pitched in his one and only World Series for his 12th and final big league team. He made three scoreless appearances for the eventual World Champion Arizona Diamondbacks.
