It appears that J.R. Murphy, a Bradenton resident and graduate of The Pendleton School at IMG Acadamies, has been impressing the right people with the New York Yankees.
Murphy was promoted from the Yankees' GCL rookie team last week to the organization's low Single-A team in Charleston. He's batting .286 in seven games with the RiverDogs with six RBIs, and is showing he belongs in the Yankees' deep pool of catching prospects.
The Yankees took Murphy in the second round of last year's draft after he batted .627 with 11 home runs during his senior year at Pendelton.
