Tom Murphy Still Battling Back Issue
San Francisco Giants catcher Tom Murphy (back) will receive a second epidural injection for his ailing back this week, and is strictly relegated to rehabilitation over the next few weeks. Justice delos Santos of The Mercury News reports. Murphy, 33, has yet to appear in any Cactus League action due to a mid-back disk herniation he suffered during the first week of pitcher and catcher workouts. Sadly, it does not appear to have improved, and he seems all but ruled out for opening day at this time. If so, teammate Sam Huff could begin the season as the team's backup backstop. Huff has hit .286 in 14 Cactus League at-bats.
