Murphy (elbow) began a throwing program last week, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports. Murphy had Tommy John surgery in April and has finally been cleared to begin throwing again. The left-hander is sure to begin next season on the injured list -- perhaps the 60-day IL -- but will hope to contribute out of Boston's bullpen eventually.

Murphy underwent successful Tommy John surgery on his left elbow Wednesday in Texas, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports. Murphy had his procedure nearly a month after he was diagnosed with a torn UCL, as he was presumably waiting for some of the swelling in his elbow to subside before getting the operation. The left-hander will likely be sidelined until around midseason in 2025.

The Red Sox placed Murphy (elbow) on the 60-day injured list Thursday. His move to the 60-day IL freed up a 40-man roster spot for lefty reliever Joely Rodriguez. Murphy sustained ligament damage to his left elbow during spring training and is likely to undergo season-ending surgery at some point in the near future.

Murphy was recalled from Triple-A Worcester on Friday, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports. The Red Sox are swapping out Brandon Walter in favor of Murphy heading into Friday's weekend series in Toronto. The southpaw will provide the bullpen with some length after working at least three innings in three of his last four appearances at Triple-A.

Murphy was optioned to Triple-A Worcester on Monday. Murphy covered four innings out of the bullpen in Sunday's loss to the Dodgers, and with that kind of workload presumably making him unavailable for at least a couple days, the Red Sox decided to remove him from the roster and replace him with fellow reliever Kyle Barraclough, who was called up from Triple-A. Now that he's back with Worcester, Murphy should slide back into the rotation.
