I’m sure Danny Duffy was shocked after picking up the local newspaper earlier this week and learning that he was done for the year. The Dodgers pet project has yet to officially pick up a ball since a trade brought him to LA last July.
Several setbacks have kept the left-hander on the sidelines since a July 16th, 2021 start while still with the Royals. He had offseason surgery to repair a flexor injury in his left arm but still signed a one-year deal with the Dodgers even after contemplating retirement at one point.
Duffy had been ramping up his throwing program in recent weeks but another setback earlier this week looked like it could spell the end of his season once again.
