After a rough start to his Orioles tenure, Charlie Morton turned his season around enough for the Tigers to trade for him at the deadline.

Detroit Tigers right-hander Charlie Morton has a 5.42 ERA with 48 walks and 101 strikeouts in 101⅓ innings in 23 games (17 starts) with the Orioles.

The Detroit Tigers acquired veteran right-hander Charlie Morton from the Baltimore Orioles on Thursday in exchange for minor league left-hander Micah Ashman.

Ashman, 22, is 4-3 with four saves and a 1.49 ERA (7 ER/42.1 IP) with 24 hits, 12 total runs, nine walks, one hit batter, and 50 strikeouts in 30 relief appearances.
