Baseball America did their analysis of the Arizona Fall League Rosters and had this to say about Danie
l Murphy in the “Major League Tune-Up” Section:
Daniel Murphy already has reached the majors and has contributed for the Mets. He’s not likely to dislodge franchise cornerstone David Wright from third base but looks to get reps at second base with the Saguaros; he played 17 games at second in Double-A this season.
The other infielders on the team are:
Gordon Beckham, CWS (SS)
Kyle Blanks, SD (1B)
Shawn Bowman, NYM (3B)
Ian Desmond, WAS (SS).
Tyler Green, STL (SS)
Bill Rhinehart (1B)
Brett Wallace, STL (1B)
The White Sox won’t move their first rounder Beckham across the diamond to play 2B. Desmond and Green have both played SS exclusively this year, but surely could learn how to play second. Otherwise, it looks like Murphy will be spending a lot of time at the keystone in the Arizona sun. Unless of course, he’s a Met and not a Saguaro.




How’s Murphy’s defense at 2b ?
Maybe a Jeff Kent ? At least
IF the METS make the playoffs Murphy is gonna be on the roster and thats gonna leave a spot free right?
And if that happen do you think that they will put Wilmer there?
I know he is too young but that way he can play 2b, and i think that he can handle that pitching.
Dude, he’s 17! He was playing in the Appalachian League.
WILMER FLORES TO BROOKLYN. BATTING 7TH TONIGHT.
Interesting. Please cite your sources in the future.
I though he was on his way to Savanna?
He played in Savannah last night.
Sorry about that, was just really excited. Too bad the Mets aren’t showing the Cyclones game tonight, which makes no sense.
