As reported in today’s Daily News, Daniel Murphy suffered a hamstring injury in winter ball. An MRI has revealed a Grade II strain of the right hamstring. Murphy won’t play in Puerto Rico at all this winter, though that has as much to do with a heavy workload this year as the injury itself. He’s expected to be fine by spring training. Murphy hurt himself in Arizona during batting practice on Nov. 11 and hadn’t played since.
On a separate note, Francisco Rodriguez’s agent Paul Kinzer has distributed medical information to interested teams, including the Mets.
