Over the course of the past four seasons, Daniel Murphy has emerged as one of the top pure hitters in all of baseball. He has also established himself as one of the top Chicago Cubs killers in the National League.
Ever Since Murphy’s 2015 NLCS performance, when he dominated Cubs pitching, Murphy has been widely regarded as one of the most clutch hitters in the game. During the Mets four-game sweep of the Cubs, Murphy went 9-for-17 (.529) and homered in each of the four games. He was awarded NLCS MVP for those exploits.
