I looked hard at the 97 Morgan too, because his glove was excellent (and I agree, I think he's an absolute sabermetric delight) but his bat, if I remember right was the issue. The 100 version was a consistent .270/.390/.485 guy with 60-70 SB a year, and he made the plays when he got to the ball, but his zone rating was awful, and his efficiency as well. I agree with you that he is one of the best 2B ever, and I feel like OOTP criminally under rates Roberto Alomar (at least to my eye/memory test), so I was really sorry to let him go.
