David Murphy was signed to a minor league deal with an opt out a few weeks ago when the Twins were hit with the news of Danny Santana being injured and poor performances from all their outfielders.

The hope, from Murphy’s, perspective was to carve out a 4th outfielder role for himself if the Twins weren’t able to find any answers.
