BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues
OWNED IN: 15 percent of Fleaflicker leagues
ANALYSIS: Danny Duffy’s supposed breakout in 2014 was a mirage, built primarily on the back of an unsustainable BABIP. He was more or less the same pitcher last year, but when that number normalized, his ERA rose by a run and a half. This season may be a different story. Though the bulk of his work has come in relief, Duffy has been successful in his five starts, posting an impressive 26.3% K-BB. He’s seen his fastball velocity tick up and is pounding the strike zone. Small sample caveats aside, it also appears as though his changeup is legitimately improved, as both that pitch and his curve are generating a higher swinging strike rate than ever before. Duffy’s still on the wire in the vast majority of leagues right now, even after an impressive showing against the Orioles on Monday night.
