Might be time to give him a whirl.

Give him a whirl exactly where? AAA? The Majors not happening this year.
I actually think he's a good candidate for a mid September "reward" call-up. He's on the 40-man already and the guy has been through a ton the past couple of years.
The best reason I can think of to trade Murphy at this point (in the offseason) is that he is going into his arbitration years and you can get a pretty decent return. You of course would be taking a huge risk giving the reigns to Havens given is history of injury and lack of experience. I'd take that risk personally. I realize some others wouldn't. I'm comfortable with both players.
