Owen Murphy To Have Tommy John Surgery

MLB.com's Jonathan Mayo has confirmed that Atlanta Braves pitching prospect Owen Murphy (elbow) will have season-ending Tommy John surgery later this week. Murphy is the team's No. 5 prospect, per MLB Pipeline, and will finish the 2024 season with a 4-2 record, sharp 1.54 ERA, 0.73 WHIP, 12 walks and 60 strikeouts in 41 innings over seven starts with High-A Rome. The 20-year-old was the 20th overall pick by the Braves in 2022 out of a high school in Illinois. It's a tough break for the young right-hander, and he'll now most likely have to miss around half of the 2025 season in addition to the rest of this year. It will set his development back in the minors, with a potential debut in the big leagues probably not coming for at least another couple of years.

Owen Murphy Strikes Out 11 In Latest Outing

Atlanta Braves pitching prospect Owen Murphy was the club's first-round pick in 2022 and has flashed significant upside ever since making his pro debut. The right-hander has good spin behind his offerings, making up for a lack of velocity likely caused by his relatively undersized 6-foot-1 frame. His fastball registers in the low 90s. He also throws a slider with good break and a slow, loopy curveball that misses enough bats. Finally, he's working on improving his changeup. Murphy was quite effective in his outing last week, striking out a whopping 11 batters over just 6.1 innings of work. Furthermore, he allowed zero runs on just three hits. A promotion to Double-A sounds like it's right around the corner.

Owen Murphy Nearing Double-A Promotion

Atlanta Braves starting pitching prospect Owen Murphy has been one of the best pitchers in all of the minor leagues this season, and he posted another dominant outing on Wednesday. Murphy tossed five innings of two-run ball with three hits, two walks, and struck out eight. This start brings the 20-year-old to a 1.82 ERA and 0.78 WHIP with 49 punchouts across 34 innings. Murphy has yet to allow more than two earned runs in his six starts this season and is making a case for a promotion to Double-A. Even though Murphy is still a couple of years away from his major league debut, dynasty managers should pay close attention to him as he is developing into an elite strikeout pitcher and could be promoted to Double-A fairly soon.

Owen Murphy Strikes Out 10 In Latest Gem

Atlanta Braves pitching prospect Owen Murphy was the club's first-round pick in 2022 and has flashed significant upside ever since making his pro debut. The right-hander gets good spin behind his offerings, making up for a lack of velocity likely caused by his relatively undersized 6-foot-1 frame. His fastball registers in the low 90s. He also throws a slider with good break and a slow, loopy curveball that misses enough bats. Finally, he's working on improving his changeup. Murphy was quite effective in his outing last week, striking out 10 batters and allowing just one hit over seven scoreless innings. He has looked brilliant at the High-A level this year, never allowing more than two runs in a single outing. If he continues to pitch well, he could earn a promotion to Double-A by the end of May.

Owen Murphy Tosses Seven-Inning Gem In Thursday’s Victory

Atlanta Braves starting pitching prospect Owen Murphy threw seven shutout innings with 10 strikeouts en route to his third victory of the season. Murphy brought a no-hitter into the seventh inning but surrendered a leadoff triple to second baseman Loidel Chapelli. The 20-year-old is now riding a stellar 1.13 ERA and 0.63 WHIP in 24 innings at High-A. This season has been a major turnaround for Murphy, as he posted a 4.76 ERA and 1.47 WHIP in 17 innings at High-A last year. The fifth-ranked prospect in the Atlanta system, according to MLB Pipeline, is not projected to reach the major leagues until 2026 but should continue to raise his dynasty stock as he moves through the minor leagues.

Owen Murphy Strikes Out 12 In Most Recent Outing

Atlanta Braves pitching prospect Owen Murphy struck out 12 batters, surrendering one run over 5 2/3 innings pitched during his most recent appearance for Low-A Augusta. The 2022 first-round draft pick has struggled early on in his professional career, posting a 4.65 ERA through 11 starts this season, though his 29.4% strikeout rate is certainly a silver lining. At only 19 years old, Murphy is the second-ranked pitching prospect in the Braves organization. He's at least a couple of years of development away from ascending to the majors, though he projects as a mid-rotation starter down the road. There is nothing actionable for fantasy managers now, but Murphy will be a player to watch.
