"Or were he and his men cast out after the battle against the Delinquents?"

Delano and his men could have just been cast out sometime after they tortured Murphy. It didn't necessarily have to be after the battle with the Delinquents.

"I'm also speculating that's why he wasn't killed outright: Anya already knew he could provide information to them on the Delinquents."

Murphy had the walkie talkie that the Grounders used to listen in on the Delinquents' conversations with each other. But you are correct that they kept him alive to get even more information. Tristan even got angry at Murphy when he decided not to tell the Grounders about the minefield. Not to get too OT, but it's surprising that Murphy hadn't said anything to the Grounders about the minefield the Delinquents created.
