DANNY DUFFY RUMORS & GOSSIP

Three relievers delivered four scoreless innings Saturday, a perfect performance after Danny Duffy issued a leadoff walk in the...

One bright spot? Duffy looks dominating in relief
It's normally pretty hard to find bright spots in a 7-1 thumping.
But the Royals can at least take some comfort in the relief outing turned in by left-hander Danny Duffy during their pounding at Minnesota.
