Duffy will be shut down for the rest of the season so that he can undergo surgery on his left Achilles to address lingering soreness, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Duffy will end the season with just 90 total games under his belt, 70 of which were spent with San Francisco and 20 with Tampa Bay. Ultimately his 2016 campaign will be defined by persistent Achilles complications, although the corrective surgery gives him a chance to be ready in time for 2017 spring training. In his absence, Nick Franklin and Brad Miller could split time at shortstop to close out the season, unless the Rays decide on bringing back Taylor Motter or Tim Beckham. The 25-year-old will finish with a .260/.312/.360 line in addition to five home runs, 28 RBI, 41 runs, and eight stolen bases.
