Danny Duffy Stats

The Texas Rangers signed free-agent outfielder Clint Frazier and left-hander Danny Duffy to minor-league deals on Friday. Once a top prospect for the Cleveland Guardians, Frazier spent the 2022 season with the Chicago Cubs and hit just .216 with a .653 OPS and no home runs in 19 games. Staying healthy has always been a big issue -- he's never played in more than 69 major-league games in a single season -- and he has a career slash line of .238/.329/.427 with a .756 OPS, 29 home runs and 98 RBI in six big-league seasons. Duffy had a left forearm injury that kept him from pitching in 2022. In his 11 major-league seasons with the Kansas City Royals, he has a 3.95 ERA (4.17 FIP), 1.32 WHIP and 21.1 percent strikeout rate in 234 outings (204 starts). Frazier and Duffy will provide some nice veteran depth if they can stay healthy in 2023.

According to Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts, left-handed pitcher Danny Duffy (forearm) had a setback while throwing live batting practice sessions recently. Roberts stated that Duffy is "pretty unlikely" to pitch this season as a result of the setback. The 33-year-old was traded to the Dodgers last season but was unable to contribute while rehabilitating a flexor tendon strain. He then went on to have surgery on his flexor tendon this past offseason. He signed a one-year deal with the Dodgers prior to the 2022 campaign, and there's a one-year club option for 2023 attached to the deal as well.

Starting Pitcher Danny Duffy and the Los Angeles Dodgers have come to terms on a one-year deal, pending a physical, according to Fabian Ardaya. Duffy was acquired by the Dodgers from the Royals last season, but Duffy was never able to suit up for them due to an elbow injury. Duffy posted a 2.51 ERA with 65 strikeouts across 61 innings pitched for the Royals in 2021 and makes for an intriguing late-round selection in 2022.
