Giants decline catcher Tom Murphy's $4M contract option for 2026 MLB season
Update: 2025-11-04
Description
**Summary:**The San Francisco Giants have declined Tom Murphy's $4 million club option for 2026, opting for a $250,000 buyout instead. Murphy, once a reliable backup, played only 13 games over two seasons with the Giants. His tenure was marked by injuries, including a left knee sprain in 2024 and a mid-back disk herniation in 2025, which kept him off the field. Despite his experience, Murphy's time with the Giants was a series of brief visits, with his most stable period being with the Seattle Mariners. As the Giants move forward with Andrew Knizner, Jesus Rodriguez, and Patrick Bailey as their primary catching options, fans will watch to see if Murphy finds another chance elsewhere.
