Alan James Fitzmorris (born March 21, 1946), is a former professional baseball player who pitched in the Major Leagues from 1969 to 1978.
Fitzmorris signed as a non-drafted free agent with the Chicago White Sox in 1966. In October 1968, he left the Sox as the 40th overall pick by the Kansas City Royals. Fitzmorris won a career high 16 games for the Royals in 1975. He stayed with the Royals until 1976. In November of that year, the Toronto Blue Jays picked him up as the 13th pick overall. He was traded by the Jays to the Cleveland Indians in exchange for Alan Ashby and Doug Howard. The Indians released him in 1978, and before a month was out he was signed by the California Angels. Granted free agency in November of that year, he signed on with the San Diego Padres in February 1979.
