Last start Duffy faced 10 batters and only retired 2 of them (a 3rd out was recording on Cain's assist at home).  Tonight, Duffy only retired 3 of the first 11 batters he faced.   10 hits, 4 walks, 2 hit batters, a run scoring wild pitch. 

Duff is hard to figure out for sure.   He had only given up 6 ERs in the 4 previous starts (24 Innings) prior to these 2 garbage starts

Replays in post-game of a lot of Duff's pitches showed how many times his mechanics changed tonight. It will take some work to get him straightened out. Hope Dave Eiland gets him back on track.

I understand it if last night our hitting sucked because the guys arrived in Dallas at 5:30am, but Duffy got to Dallas earlier so there is no reason he should have been that bad.  Yikes this is the old Duffy.

Maybe whatever he was doing in DFW before the team arrived was more distracting/exhausting than playing a game until 1AM and then flying to Texas through the night?  :dunno:

I'm more confident in Vargas and Guthrie than Duffy right now. It's time for Eiland to earn his paycheck.

it's crazy that he went 7 innings with 1 ER vs the tigers like 2 weeks ago

Sys, what's wrong with Duffy?

He is trying way too hard to copy the 2013 Red Sox with that beard

Real talk: I'm terrified about our pitching moving forward. This cannot be a season where we sit on our hands when it comes to the trade deadline.

How can our closers be so good and our starters be so bad?

Cause I like the Royals. That would be weird rooting for a team I had no allegiance to.

What do you classify as "a real fan"?

If giving the business to a couple of IRL friends here on this blog makes me "not a real fan", that really sucks you guys.
