Carter Murphy brings middle-of-the-order pop and steady infield value for USF
In the 2025 season, Carter Murphy hit .298 with a .375 on-base percentage and .429 slugging percentage for South Florida, adding 2 homers, 13 RBIs, and 25 hits in 30 games; in 2026, his early sample was modest, but he still logged starts and flashed clean defense with a 1.000 fielding percentage in limited chances. At 6-foot-2, 245 pounds, he profiles as a physical, right-handed infielder who can do damage when he squares it up and has shown situational value with runners in scoring position. If you need a sturdy bat with some thump and infield reliability, he’s a fit.
