Murphy entered Monday's series opener at Oakland riding a seven-game hitting streak. He is hitting .350 (7 for 20) with two home runs and four RBI over that span.

David Murphy homers again
|
| David Murphy's Fantasy contributions go largely unnoticed, as he usually pops up as a fill-in for an injured Nelson Cruz or Josh Hamilton before riding the season out as a starter and finding his way to about 425 at-bats. Once again, when given the shot at somewhat regular playing time last season, Murphy did not disappoint. He hit .304 in 457 at-bats with 15 home runs, 29 doubles and 10 steals. The at-bats were a career high and he may have played his way into a starting role. Murphy is 6-foot-4 and weighs 205 pounds, numbers that have many people not realizing he has some speed, having averaged 11 steals over the past four seasons, despite averaging only 428 at-bats. A full-time role for Murphy should result in a flirtation with 20 home runs, an average that could hover between .285 and .295 and something in the neighborhood of 15 steals. If Murphy starts, he could be a nice late-round sleeper for a third or fourth outfield position. (Updated 11/30/12) |
