Tom Murphy To Be Re-Evaluated In Six Weeks
Tom Murphy (back) will be re-evaluated in six weeks, according to NBC Sports Bay Area's Alex Pavlovic. Murphy is on the 60-day injured list and has yet to make his debut with the Giants due to a mid-back disc herniation that he suffered early in spring training in February. The 34-year-old veteran backstop still has a chance to play in 2025, but even if he gets good news during his checkup in six weeks, he's unlikely to be back with San Fran until the second half of the season. In the meantime, the Giants have moved forward with Patrick Bailey as their starter and Sam Huff as their backup behind the dish. Murphy had a career-high 18 home runs in 75 games for the Seattle Mariners way back in 2019 and then also recorded double-digit homers (11) in 2021 after a year off due to injury. He hasn't played more than 47 games in a season since and should remain on the waiver wire in all leagues.
