Latest news
The White Sox optioned Murphy to Triple-A Charlotte on Sunday.
Murphy made four appearances after rejoining the big-league club Sept. 9. Over 33 games with the White Sox this season, Murphy is sporting a 3-0 record, 4.81 ERA, 1.43 WHIP and 35:16 K:BB over 33.2 innings. With Huascar Brazoban (lat) returning from the 15-day IL, Murphy was the odd man out for an active roster spot.

Murphy allowed three runs on two hits and one walk over two-thirds of an inning during the White Sox's 7-6 loss to the Guardians on Tuesday.
Murphy served as the White Sox's opener Tuesday for the third time this season, but he couldn't make it out of the first inning after giving up home runs to both Jo Adell and Travis Bazzana. It was the first time Murphy gave up multiple homers in an outing this season and his first instance since July 25, 2025, against the Dodgers, when he gave up three long balls. He now sits at a 4.68 ERA and 1.41 WHIP across 32.2 innings this year, and it's unclear whether he'll be used as an opener over the final games of the regular season.

Murphy will be used as the White Sox's opening pitcher for Tuesday's contest in Cleveland, Jesse Rogers of ESPN.com reports.
Murphy will work the first inning or two before Davis Martin likely takes over in bulk relief. The left-handed Murphy has tossed two scoreless frames with a 5:0 K:BB in his two outings since being recalled from Triple-A Charlotte last week.

The White Sox recalled Murphy from Triple-A Charlotte on Wednesday.
He is taking the roster spot vacated by Tyler Davis (bereavement). Murphy has logged 29 appearances for the White Sox this season, collecting a 4.20 ERA and 29:15 K:BB across 30 innings of work. He could be with the big club only while Davis is away for the next few days.

The White Sox activated Murphy (forearm) from the 15-day injured list and optioned him to Triple-A Charlotte on Monday.
Chicago didn't have room in its bullpen for a healthy Murphy, so he'll end up sticking around in Charlotte for a little while longer after he struck out six over 4.2 scoreless innings across five rehab appearances for the affiliate. Murphy should rank near the top of the list for a call-up if the White Sox have a need for another lefty arm in the bullpen at any point over the final three weeks of the season.

Murphy (forearm) began a rehab assignment with Triple-A Charlotte on Tuesday, pitching around two hits in a scoreless inning.
Murphy was diagnosed with a left flexor strain less than three weeks ago, so it's a pleasant surprise that he's pitching in games again already. Because his absence has been brief, he shouldn't need many -- if any -- more rehab outings before rejoining the big-league bullpen.
