Jude Murphy@  
Shortstop | Free Agents

Hitting
One of the nice things about Jude is that he's a real clutch hitter. If it's late in the game, and there are men on base, you want this guy at the plate. The book on Murphy is that you can knock the bat out of his hands with an average major league fastball. He has a natural lift to his swing, which produces few groundballs. He hits righthanders and lefthanders with equal consistency.

Baserunning & Defense
Murphy doesn't have great speed, though he reads righthanders' moves well enough to steal a few bases each season without getting caught very often. His glovework leaves a lot to be desired. His arm is accurate enough.

2025 Outlook
What The Free Agents was thinking when they signed Murphy to a long contract, is beyond me: this guy flat-out sucks.
