Duffy felt soreness in his surgically repaired left heel during his Thursday rehab start for High-A Charlotte, but he still plans to take the field for the Stone Crabs against Fort Myers on Saturday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
The news certainly isn't ideal, but Duffy's proclamation that he'll be back Saturday after sitting out Friday's game is certainly encouraging. The 26-year-old has gone 2-for-6 over his first two appearances for the Stone Crabs.
