According to MLB.com, Oakland A’s catcher Sean Murphy has been the subject of trade talks during the league’s general manager meetings.

“Sean is a player that any organization would want behind the plate in the big leagues,” said A’s GM David Forst. “He’s obviously a popular topic of discussion when I talk to other clubs. But that was the case last offseason and at the deadline. He still remains an A, and we’ll see where the offseason goes.”

Murphy enjoyed a strong season in 2022, slashing .250/.332/.426 with 18 home runs and 66 RBI in 148 games, finishing as a finalist for the Gold Glove and Silver Slugger Awards.
