The Colorado Rockies designate Matt Murton for assignment
The Rockies have designated 27-year old righty swinging outfielder Matt Murton for assignment. Murton played in 22 games for the Rockies this season and he was 12 for 45 (.267 avg, .771 OPS) with 7 runs scored, 1 homer, 6 RBIs and 2 stolen bases. Murton just can’t seem to find a break as he puts up decent numbers but teams are always getting rid of him.
