Royals pitching coach Dave Eiland said the club doesn't view Danny Duffy as a "long-term bullpen guy." Duffy will compete for a spot in the bullpen after losing out to Yordano Ventura for the fifth starter role, but the team still believes the 25-year-old has a future as a starter. Duffy will likely earn a gig as the team's long reliever and could make some spot starts this season if needed.
