This was my first look at Murray and while he didn't get a lot of pitches to hit, he was impressive all the way around. Athletic defender that shows actions to stay in the infield. Arm strength would be my biggest question as far as moving/staying on the left side, but sometimes that can be hard to judge from second base. Handled himself well around the bag in pregame and was a quick exchange and release on throws. At the plate there is controlled intent in the swing and he looks to do damage early in counts. Just missed his fly ball to center field as he was a little bit out front. Later on had a hard ground ball through the left side.
