Question - Why was releasing Murfee necessary? Couldn’t they just have put him on the 60 day IL list if we needed room on the 40 man roster?


I read somewhere that signing Duvall put the Braves very close to the 3rd luxury tax threshold. Releasing Murfee brings that number down a bit and gives AA some wiggle room to add during the season.

Makes sense for it to be monetary. Was only thinking about roster size.

Sounds like there will be very little room to add anybody during the year if we are that close.
