Daniel Murphy has been claimed off revocable waivers, according to a report in the New York Post.

The New York Yankees weren't the claiming team. The Washington Nationals haven't confirmed the report.

If Murphy was claimed, the Nationals would have 48 hours to either work out a standard trade with the claiming club or allow Murphy to simply leave for nothing in return. Washington could also pull him back off waivers.

Murphy is owed roughly $4 million before he hits free agency this winter.
