Rangers avoided arbitration with OF David Murphy by agreeing to a one-year, $5.775 million contract.
It's the midpoint of the figures exchanged last week. Murphy, 31, was in his final year of arbitration and should be in line for a pretty nice deal next winter if he can repeat his performance from 2012, when he batted .304/.380/.479 with 15 home runs and 10 stolen bases.
