Sean Murphy To Begin Rehab Assignment Tuesday
6 months agoAtlanta Braves catcher Sean Murphy (oblique) will begin a minor-league rehab assignment on Tuesday, according to manager Brian Snitker. Murphy has been on the injured list since Opening Day when he suffered an oblique injury. The 29-year-old may require a little extra time to get back into game shape, but the Braves should have their primary backstop with the big-league club within the next couple weeks. Murphy was coming off an All-Star campaign in 2023, and with Travis d'Arnaud suffering a head contusion Friday night, the Braves may need him back sooner rather than later, depending on the results of some additional evaluation of d'Arnaud on Saturday. In the meantime, Chadwick Tromp may have to serve as Atlanta's primary backstop.
