FILE - In this Oct. 10, 2016, file photo, Tim Tebow warms up before baseball practice for the Arizona Fall League in Scottsdale, Ariz. Washington Nationals second baseman Daniel Murphy said Friday, Feb. 17, 2017, at spring training that he recently spent some time working on batting with Tebow, the Heisman Trophy winner and former NFL quarterback who now is pursuing a baseball career. Tebow is expected to be in minor league camp with the New York Mets next month. Murphy said he and Tebow live about 15 houses apart in Jacksonville but had never met. "He's quite an impressive person," Murphy said. (AP Photo/Rick Scuteri, File)

Washington Nationals second baseman Daniel Murphy has not played a game since Sept. 21 and has only pinch hit since Sept. 17. The Nationals are keeping him from playing in a game to make sure he's ready for the postseason so he doesn't aggravate his strained buttock. (Associated Press Photographs)
