This is combining his ability to limit hard contact (which was his key in 2014) with great command, which is why the strikeouts are way up. Exciting.
If they can just solidify that No. 5 rotation spot, I think the rest of the rotation is good enough to get it done.
In a potential playoff series, you'd be hoping to have Duffy and Volquez make most of your road starts, and use Kennedy/Ventura at home.

Reminds me of what Duffy was flirting with becoming before his injury sidelined him just as he was looking like he was coming into his own. I'm a huge Duffy fan so I admit my bias when I say if he can get into a routine and defined spot and work with the staff to clean up his mechanics and the rest, I think he's got it in him to be a nasty #2.
