Career
Amateur career
Murfee attended Montgomery Bell Academy in Nashville, Tennessee. Undrafted out of high school in 2013, Murfree attended Vanderbilt University. Murfee redshirted his freshman season, and played college baseball for the Commodores for three seasons. Murfee was an infielder his first two seasons, before converting to pitching for his final year at Vanderbilt. Murfee transferred to Santa Clara University for his redshirt senior season.
Seattle Mariners
Murfee was drafted by the Seattle Mariners in the 33rd round, with the 988th overall selection, of the 2018 Major League baseball (MLB) draft.
He spent the 2018 season with the Everett AquaSox, going 3–2 with a 6.55 ERA over 33 innings. In 2019, he split between the Modesto Nuts, Arkansas Travelers, and Tacoma Rainiers, going a combined 6–5 with a 3.57 ERA and 136 strikeouts over 113+1⁄3 innings. Murfee received the Mariners 2019 minor league "60 ft., 6-in Club” Award.
After the season, he played for the Peoria Javelinas of the Arizona Fall League. And also, on October 10, 2019, he was selected for the United States national baseball team at the 2019 WBSC Premier 12. Murfee did not play in a game in 2020 due to the cancellation of the minor league season because of the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2021, he split the season between Double-A Arkansas and Triple-A Tacoma, posting a 7-3 record and 4.23 ERA with 97 strikeouts in 78.2 innings pitched across 26 appearances (14 starts). He was assigned to Tacoma to begin the 2022 season.
On April 20, 2022, Murfee was added to the Mariners active roster. Murfee was unused out of the Mariners bullpen in the six days he spent on the active roster, and was removed from the 40-man roster and returned to Triple-A on April 27. Due to his time spent on Seattle’s active roster, but no major league playing time, Murfee became a phantom ballplayer. The following day, Murfee was re-selected to the 40-man and active rosters. He made his MLB debut on April 29, 2022, pitching against the Miami Marlins and recording his first two strikeouts. He made 64 appearances for Seattle in his rookie campaign, pitching to a 4-0 record and 2.99 ERA with 76 strikeouts in 69.1 innings of work.
Murfee pitched in 16 contests for Seattle in 2023, registering a 1.29 ERA with 16 strikeouts across 14.0 innings of work. On June 27, 2023, it was announced that Murfee would undergo season–ending surgery on his ulnar collateral ligament.
