Noah Murdock, a Rule 5 draft pick by the Oakland Athletics, has been informed he will secure a spot on the team's roster, thus allowing him to make his MLB debut. With impressive stats, including a 2.22 ERA at Double-A and a 3.76 ERA at Triple-A, Murdock showcased a high strikeout rate coupled with a notable ground-ball percentage despite a concerning walk rate. His tall stature may have affected his control, prompting the Royals not to include him on their 40-man roster. He is expected to play a low-leverage role initially for the A's.
Noah Murdock, selected in the Rule 5 draft by the A's, will debut in the MLB this season, after a strong performance in the minors.
The A's are interested in Murdock's combination of strikeout ability and ground ball rate despite concerns over his control issues.
