Tyler Duffey

As the Twins dominated the Royals Tuesday afternoon, Tyler Duffey entered the game in the sixth inning after a Mike Moustakas single knocked Hector Santiago out of the game. Duffey proceeded to record three straight outs in his one inning of work.

Fantasy Impact

Duffey doesn't feature overpowering stuff as a reliever. However, he could see an elevated role in the Twins bullpen if his stuff plays up in shorter outings. After a disappointing 2016, Duffey could find his niche in relief for Minnesota and is worth loosely monitoring if he begins working later in games.

Twins SP Tyler Duffey lasted only three innings in Wednesday's 9-4 loss to the Tigers. Duffey dropped to 8-10 and allowed six runs on seven hits, including a pair of home runs.

Fantasy Impact

In his last two starts, Duffey has allowed 11 runs over just 6 2/3 innings. With a 6.24 ERA through 115 innings this season, you'd be wise to avoid him.

Tyler Duffey ran into the ice-cold Houston Astros Monday night and made quick work of them, striking out eight over six innings and allowing just four hits and a walk.

Fantasy Impact

Duffey is a tantalizing arm in fantasy contests, but he's just not a trustworthy source at this time as he's shown zero consistency this season. Even with Monday's win, he is only 7-8 with a 5.93 ERA this season.

Twins SP Tyler Duffey continued his maddeningly inconsistent ways on Wednesday, allowing eight hits and five runs over just 1 1/3 innings. Duffey walked one and allowed a two-run home run to Jeff Francouer, and his amount of strikeouts really doesn't matter (it was zero.)

Fantasy Impact

After a brilliant start against Texas on July 7th, Duffey has since allowed 15 runs in 10 innings. In taking the loss on Wednesday, he is now 5-8 with a 6.12 ERA.

The Red Sox owned Tyler Duffey on Thursday night, banging out nine hits and scoring six runs over just 2 1/3 innings. Duffey recorded a walk and failed to strike anyone out, falling to 5-7 with a 5.71 ERA this season.

Fantasy Impact

Duffey has been incredibly inconsistent in 2016, allowing 6, 1, 4, 0, 4 and 6 earned runs in his last six starts. He should be avoided until he can show some consistency.
