Danny Duffy Uninjured After Early Exit Thursday
4 years agoKansas City Royals starting pitcher Danny Duffy (leg) is not injured after being hit by a comebacker in his start on Thursday, according to Anne Rogers of MLB.com. Duffy was hit in both legs by the comebacker with one out in the top of the fifth inning, and then exited the game with the trainer. Rogers adds that the move appeared to be precautionary, as Duffy had already pitched into the fifth inning and is scheduled for one more start before Opening Day. Duffy's 23.6 percent strikeout rate in 2020 was his best mark since 2016, and he can be a sneaky, matchup-dependent streaming option in deeper formats.
