INJURIES

Hangs up cleats Murphy retired from professional baseball Tuesday, Sam Blum of The Athletic reports.
Impact Murphy previously announced his retirement before the 2021 season, but secured a minor-league deal from the Angels in June and attempted a comeback to the majors. After slashing .295/.379/.362 with Triple-A Salt Lake across 169 plate appearances Murphy will once again call it a career. Murphy will finish his 12-year career with a .296 batting average on top of 138 homers and 735 RBI while also winning the NLCS MVP award with the Mets in 2015.

Signs minor-league deal with Angels Murphy signed a minor-league contract with the Angels on Monday, Michael Mayer of MetsmerizedOnline.com reports.
Impact Murphy had been playing with the independent Atlantic League's Long Island Ducks, putting up a .331/.410/.451 slash with two home runs in 37 contests. The three-time All-Star previously hadn't played anywhere since 2020 and is now 38 years old, but on a no-risk minor-league pact the Angels felt he was worth a shot.

Rockies decline $12M option for infielder Daniel Murphy

The Colorado Rockies have declined infielder Daniel Murphy’s $12 million option, bringing a close to his two-year stint with the team
OCTOBER 28, 2020
Bought out by Colorado Murphy became a free agent Wednesday after the Rockies declined his $12 million team option for 2020.
Impact Murphy will receive a $6 million buyout, meaning the contract he signed with Colorado after the 2018 season was effectively a two-year, $30 million deal. As the Rockies' decision to decline the 2021 option suggests, Murphy failed to meet expectations during his time in Colorado, providing a .269/.316/.426 slash line (77 wRC+) over 610 plate appearances. Since he's viewed primarily as a first baseman at this stage in his career and is set to turn 36 years old in April, Murphy might have to settle for a minor-league deal this winter if he wants to continue playing.

Transitioning to bench role Murphy remains out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Athletics, Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post reports.
Impact Out of the lineup versus a right-handed pitcher (Mike Fiers) for the fourth time in five games, Murphy appears to have moved into a full-time reserve role for the Rockies. The 35-year-old is slashing a lowly .239/.280/.342 on the season, a batting line rendered even more disappointing given the fact that he's had the benefit of playing at Coors Field. Josh Fuentes is now the Rockies' top option at first base.
SEPTEMBER 16, 2020 • ROTOWIRE
Remains on bench Murphy is not starting Tuesday against the Athletics, Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post reports.
Impact Murphy has now sat for five of the last six games, including three times against righties and twice against lefties like Tuesday's starter Sean Manaea. Josh Fuentes remains the starter at first base.
SEPTEMBER 15, 2020 • ROTOWIRE
Returns to bench Murphy is out of the lineup Sunday against the Angels, Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post reports.
Impact Murphy started Saturday and went 0-for-5, and he now finds himself on the bench for the fourth time in the past five contests. Matt Kemp will bat fifth as the designated hitter Sunday.

SEPTEMBER 12, 2020
Sits for third straight Murphy remains on the bench for the third straight game Friday against the Angels.
Impact Murphy appears to be losing playing time after hitting .250/.286/.357 through 34 games, numbers which would look quite poor even if he didn't get to play half his games in Coors Field. Josh Fuentes will be the first baseman in his absence.
SEPTEMBER 11, 2020 • ROTOWIRE
Remains on bench Murphy isn't starting Wednesday against the Padres.
Impact Murphy will take a seat for a second straight game, even with right-hander Zach Davies on the mound for San Diego. Matt Kemp will serve as the designated hitter once again.

Not starting Tuesday Murphy isn't in Tuesday's lineup against the Padres.

SEPTEMBER 6, 2020 • ROTOWIRE
Sitting Wednesday Murphy is not in the lineup Wednesday against the Giants, Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post reports.
Impact Murphy hits the bench even with a righty (Logan Webb) starting for the Giants. The veteran is hitting just .265/.303/.382 this season, so it's no surprise that the Rockies are turning to younger alternatives at first base. Josh Fuentes gets the nod Wednesday.
