Tom Murphy Goes Deep Friday
4 years agoSeattle Mariners catcher Tom Murphy hit his second home run of the year Friday night. Acting as the designated hitter, Murphy homered from the ninth spot in the lineup off of Angels starter Andrew Heaney in the bottom of the fourth inning. Murphy has struggled early in 2021, producing a lowly .509 OPS. Fortunately for him, fellow backstop Luis Torrens has fared no better, so Murphy doesn't seem in danger of losing too much playing time. That said, Murphy should only be a consideration in two-catcher fantasy leagues.
