Chris Duffy Injury Update

Bucco Blog

"...Last August, Chris suffered a torn left hamstring. As of January 12, 2006, he still was not running bases. On January 29th, the Pittsburgh Post Gazette reported Duffy was 'instructed' to take a week off instead of participating on the third leg of the Pirate caravan..."

Looks like one consensus sleeper candidate is going to disappoint.

He is already on a team and may be protected. If he remains the starter entering the season, I will have serious concerns that he will come up lame or play through the injury and hurt his numbers - AVG and SB.

More likely, if the hammy remains a concern, he won't make it to Opening Day, and Bay will be back in CF.
