The Los Angeles Dodgers added underrated lefty arm Danny Duffy for a PTBNL on Thursday afternoon, potentially filling a middle-innings void while the rest of the front office pursued Max Scherzer and Trea Turner.
Not a bad way to end a week.
The Duffy acquisition is bound to get lost in the weeds — and, well, rightly so, considering they also acquired one of the greatest pitchers in National League history — but his addition seems to have fulfilled a longtime prophecy.
