José Morban (born December 2, 1979 in San Cristóbal, Dominican Republic) is a retired Major League Baseball infielder.

Career

In December 2002, the Minnesota Twins chose Morban in the Rule 5 Draft. Morban was previously a member of the Texas Rangers. To accommodate Morban on their roster, the Twins released David Ortiz.[1]

Morban played for the Baltimore Orioles in 2003. Morban played in 61 games and had 10 hits in 71 at-bats.

After playing in only 4 games for the Texas Rangers Triple-A affiliate, the Oklahoma RedHawks in 2007, he played for Águilas Cibaeñas in the Dominican Winter League that offseason.
