Shaun Murphy left Saturday’s game due to a tight hamstring. It doesn’t seem like anything more serious than a tight fit, however, given the position he plays, the Braves may not be able to get away with keeping him away from IL. They have the day off on Monday, so maybe they can make it through Wednesday without needing another catcher. However, if he needs to sit out longer than that, the team will likely need another catcher on the roster to rotate with Travis D’Arno. Given the often annoying nature of hamstring injuries, the smarter option might have been to simply put Murphy on the IL to allow for a full recovery even if it would be a big hit for the Braves on the field.

Shaun Murphy left Saturday’s game with hamstring tightness and while it doesn’t sound too severe, he could hit the IL and that hamstring tightness can be noticeably annoying.
The Braves dominated the Rockies from the start of the game, on their way to a 10-2 victory.
