waiting for duff-man

danny duffy had a few cards in 2022, but the ones i saw - flagship and heritage - still showed him as a kansas city royal. that was odd because he had been traded to the dodgers during the 2021 season. the back of his 2022 topps card even mentioned the trade in the "how acquired" line, but he was still all royal in terms of team affiliation.

i found this card

at the lcs and figured it was worth the nickel they were asking. it's a 2021 panini contenders optic card, and it identifies duffy as a player with "los angeles". this may wind up being his only dodger card as he wasn't in this year's update, and his option for 2023 was declined by the team.

duffy never did pitch in a big league game for the dodgers due to injuries and rehab which is too bad. he is a semi-local guy who grew up near my hometown, and i always like to see those players wear dodger blue - not just on cardboard.
