Dominating at High-A

May 16, 2024
Murphy struck out 11 over 6.1 scoreless innings for High-A Rome on Tuesday, allowing three hits and zero walks.
ANALYSIS
The 20-year-old right-hander is having a breakout campaign and justifying the upside Atlanta saw in him when the team made Murphy the 20th overall pick in the 2022 draft. In his last five starts, he's struck out double-digit batters three times, posting a 1.86 ERA, 0.69 WHIP and 44:8 K:BB in only 29 innings over that stretch. Atlanta hasn't had qualms about advancing pitchers up the ladder quickly in the past, so Murphy figures to get promoted to Double-A before long given his dominance of South Atlantic League hitters. On his current trajectory, a 2025 big-league debut could be in the cards.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
Ranked outside of Baseball America and MLB Pipeline's pre-draft top 40, Murphy was selected by Atlanta with the No. 20 overall pick and signed for $850K under slot. A 6-foot-1, 190-pound prep righty from Illinois, Murphy was a two-way prospect in high school who also played third base, but his future is on the mound. His fastball has trended up and now sits in the low-90s with excellent movement. He throws four pitches and has the command and control to start. Prep righties are considered extremely risky for good reason, but every year a couple really pop in their first full pro seasons.
