The Book on David Murphy
Prospect Info
David Murphy
Born 10/18/1981
OF, TEX
A Texas local boy who barely qualifies as a rookie for 2008 (just three ABs short of the cutoff), Murphy is a well-rounded lefthanded hitter with solid, but non-spectacular tools. He's old for a prospect, but he could play a useful role with this year's version of the Rangers, who are lacking in solid left-handed bats.

David Murphy has been named the AL's Rookie of the Month for April 2008. We love seeing the hardworking Murphy get some respect like this, even if the competition among AL rookies hasn't been very strong.
