Morgan Burkhart (born January 29, 1972) is an American former first baseman/designated hitter in Major League Baseball (MLB) who played for the Boston Red Sox (2000–2001) and Kansas City Royals (2003).

In his rookie season, he hit .288 with four home runs and 18 RBIs in 25 appearances, playing mostly as a backup for Brian Daubach.

After the season, he made history in the Mexican Pacific League while playing for the Navojoa Mayos, when he homered from both sides of the plate in one game against Mazatlán.

Burkhart started 2001 with Triple-A Pawtucket, hitting .269 with 25 home runs and 65 RBIs in 120 games before rejoining the Red Sox late in the season.

In a 42-game Major League career, Burkhart posted a .248 batting average (30-for-121) with five home runs and 23 RBI, including a solid .366 on-base percentage.

Turner's agent, Jeff Berry, told the media that it was an unfair process to force him to play half the season for a team that traded him and had no further interest in promoting his development, and said he would be filing a grievance through the players' union.
