Murphy (oblique) took 45 swings off a tee Tuesday and will continue to ramp up his rehab, MLB.com reports. "He's going to continue to ramp up his swings this week. He's been so diligent, but you can't push it," manager Terry Francona said. The Indians may have some difficulty finding a rehab spot for Murphy as the minor league seasons come to a close but he's getting closer to a return. The Indians will probably have a further grasp on the next steps over the weekend.
