Chris Murphy RP | CHW
Red Sox's Chris Murphy: Headed to Greenville
Murphy (elbow) reported to High-A Greenville on Tuesday and could begin a rehab assignment, MLB.com reports.
Murphy underwent Tommy John surgery last April and appears to have reached the point in his rehab that he's ready to test himself in a game setting. He'll likely need most of the 30-day rehab window to knock off some rust before the Red Sox bring him back from the 60-day injured list.

Jhoan Duran RP | PHI
Twins' Jhoan Duran: Pockets ninth save
Duran walked one and struck out one in a scoreless ninth inning Tuesday to record his ninth save of the season in a 4-2 win over the Rays.
It was the right-hander's first save since May 14, as Duran blew his only save chance during the previous two-week stretch. That blown save was the only time in his last 15 appearances he's been tagged with an earned run, however, and over that 15-game stretch he's posted a 0.60 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and 20:5 K:BB in 15 innings.

The 26-year-old has been good for the Tigers in his debut campaign, posting a 1.26 ERA and 0.84 WHIP with 14 strikeouts across 14.1 innings so far. Lee has only been scored upon twice in 11 appearances.
