Murton optioned back to minors: Infielder Eric Patterson was recalled from Triple-A Sacramento on Sunday immediately inserted into the Oakland Athletics' lineup against the Texas Rangers. To make room for Patterson, the A's optioned outfielder Matt Murton to Sacramento. "For me it's a matter of going down there and taking my at-bats ... and doing the things that have made me successful," Murton said.

Fantasy Analysis

Murton was obtained in the trade with Chicago that sent Rich Harden to the Cubs, but was hitting only .100 with two RBI in 30 at-bats for Oakland. Murton is a former elite prospect that never found his groove in the majors. He is nothing more than a poor AL-only Fantasy option when active.
