Danny Duffy continued his excellent strategy in Saturday's start

After throwing 48 pitches in his first start of 2016, Danny Duffy followed up with a fantastic 63-pitch performance on Saturday. He made it 4.1 innings with those 63 pitches, a mere 14.5 pitches per inning.

This will be my third article in a row concerning Duffy. My first one suggested a new strategy for him, and my second one analyzed his first start. I think it's justified; Duffy has immense talent but has struggled to catch on in the rotation. His is an interesting story, and the twists and turns he encounters as he tries to stick as a starter make for good analysis.
