Jaron Murphree
Relief Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players
Pitching Murphree also has a decent changeup. If you're going in to face Murphree, better be wearing plenty of protection. He's wild. You know, some times I think I can throw harder than Murphree, and that's saying a lot. He attacks lefties and righties with similar success.
Defense & Hitting He doesn't have much of a pickoff move and he's slow getting the ball to home plate out of the set position. Murphree's follow-through leaves him in a vulnerable position, so he has trouble with comebackers. Murphree is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Murphree has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Murphree as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2025 Outlook But if you ask me, I'll pass on Murphree.
