Sidelined after skin cancer procedure
Duffey has been sidelined since Feb. 26 after having surgery to remove a cancerous mole from his back, MLB.com reports. He started light baseball activity Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
A suspicious mole on Duffey's back was diagnosed as melanoma during an exam early in spring training. Duffey hopes to pitch in games by the end of spring training, but it appears likely he'll begin the season on the injured list. He signed a minor-league deal with the Royals and is attempting to win a spot in the major-league bullpen this spring.

Like the rest of Minnesota's bullpen, Duffey got off to a slow start last season with a 4.50 ERA and 22:13 K:BB in 24 innings through June 11. The career resurgence he's had since 2019 as a reliable setup man looked to have run out of gas as reflected in his season-ending totals of a career-low 9.3 swinging strike rate and career-high 11 percent walk rate. However, he righted the ship and posted a 2.35 ERA and 39:15 K:BB in 38.1 innings after June 11. Despite a down year from his recent standards, he still posted 22 holds. He's rarely been used to close games despite his dominance against right-handed batters (.531 OPS allowed vs. RHB last season), and that doesn't figure to change this season as Jorge Alcala and Taylor Rogers are likely first in line in saves. Still, if his second-half correction is carried over into 2022, he'll be a reliable source of holds.
