The Athletics returned Murdock to the Royals on Monday.

Murdock was designated for assignment by the Athletics on Friday, and as a Rule 5 draft pick, he had to be offered back to his original organization in Kansas city once he cleared waivers. The 26-year-old righty struggled mightily over his 14 relief appearances for the Athletics this season, accruing a 13.24 ERA and 2.71 WHIP with a 21:20 K:BB across 17 innings. He'll likely report to the Royals' Triple-A affiliate in Omaha.
