Murphy is not in Atlanta's starting lineup against Arizona on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Murphy started in the first two games of the series, going 2-for-6 with two runs scored and a solo homer. He'll get a breather for Sunday's series finale while Drake Baldwin gets the start behind home plate and bats eighth against Arizona right-hander Brandon Pfaadt.

Murphy went 1-for-2 with a solo home run and two walks in Saturday's 8-7 extra-inning win over Arizona.
EDGE Analysis
Murphy has three homers over his last five games, a span in which he has gone 4-for-15 (.267). The catcher went deep off Merrill Kelly in the second inning of this contest. Murphy is at a .220/.350/.660 slash line with seven homers, 13 RBI, nine runs scored and a double over 15 games this season. He has been Atlanta's primary catcher since early April after recovering from fractured rib, though any drop in performance by Murphy could open the door for prospect Drake Baldwin to seize more playing time.

Murphy went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's loss to the Cardinals.
EDGE Analysis
Murphy got Atlanta on the board with a solo blast in the fourth. It was Murphy's sixth big blast of the season in just his 12th game, and he currently leads the team in home runs. Murphy's batting average continues to hover around the Mendoza Line and currently sits at .209, but he's made up for it so far with his power and sports a .948 OPS.

Murphy went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Monday's 7-6 win against the Cardinals.
EDGE Analysis
Murphy was hitless until the eighth inning, when he pounded a three-run homer to left field to give Atlanta a 7-3 lead. The long ball was the fifth of the season for the veteran catcher in just 11 games, and he now has 11 RBI in what was been a productive beginning to 2025 after Murphy began the campaign on the injured list due to an injury. He's still batting a mediocre .205, but the power output and run production has kept Murphy atop Atlanta's catcher depth chart despite the recent offensive upswing of rookie Drake Baldwin.

Murphy is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Twins.
EDGE Analysis
Murphy has just one hit with seven strikeouts in his past 16 plate appearances, and he'll receive Sunday off after a run of seven straight starts. Drake Baldwin will take over behind the plate for Atlanta in the series finale versus Minnesota.

Murphy went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in Monday's win over the Blue Jays.
EDGE Analysis
The backstop took Easton Lucas deep in the first inning, the first of three Atlanta homers off the southpaw. Murphy is very quickly erasing memories of his rough 2024 campaign -- after homering 10 times in 72 contests last year, he's already launched four long balls in his first six games of 2025.

Murphy went 2-for-4 with two solo home runs and a walk in Saturday's 5-4 win over the Rays.
EDGE Analysis
Murphy got Atlanta on the board with a solo home run in the seventh inning and then tied things up with another blast in the eighth. Since making his season debut Tuesday, the 30-year-old has gone 5-for-15 with three long balls, six RBI and four runs scored across 18 plate appearances. It's a small sample, but early signs point to a potential bounce-back campaign if he can remain healthy.
