Murray has a pro body at 6-2, 195 lbs and some good tools to go with it. He has close to MLB average arm strength on throws across the diamond from third base and threw 84-85 mph off the mound. Murray’s hands are sure and soft and as long as he works hard to maintain his looseness, he’ll be a solid defensive third baseman in pro or college ball. Murray has some natural loft in his swing and can drive balls hard with his natural strength. He’s an anxious hitter who’ll have to learn how keep his front side closed and his hands back at the next level as pitchers change speeds. He creates excellent bat speed with the wood and projects to hit with power. Murray is also very interesting as a pitching prospect, at least at the college level. We can easily see him throwing 90 or better in the future and he shows a good breaking ball and a nice change. Look for him to sign with a top baseball academic school. Chad is an excellent student 3.96 GPA/1280SAT/27ACT.

Murray is a 6 foot 2, 195 pound 3rd baseman who fills out a uniform like a Big Leaguer. He ran a 7.09 in the 60 which is good for a power hitting 3Bman and he showed a good arm at third base. In fact, he threw 84 mph across the infield with good carry and effortless arm action. And he threw with even better velocity off the mound. His bat showed up with some power and a nice swing. The BP swing might be a lottle long for live pitching but he handled the wood bat well in the game situations showing average bat-speed at the Major League level. Defensively he made some good plays and showed some of the best fielding actions in the showcase with quick feet for his size and position. On the hill he showed 84-88 mph velocity, a good working arm and a good 70-72 mph curve for strikes. He showed a little bit of everything at the next level and he was ultimately selected to attend our National Showcase the folowing weekend in Lincoln, Nebraska. Excellent student.
