Duffy is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Tigers, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

EDGE Analysis

Duffy will retreat to the bench for the series finale after starting at first or third base in five of the Angels' last six games while going 5-for-20 with two doubles, a walk and three RBI. Now that he's healthy again, Duffy will likely be competing with Andrew Velazquez and Mike Ford for two spots in the Angels' everyday infield.

Duffy will start the game at first base and bat sixth in the order Monday against Detroit, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

EDGE Analysis

Duffy has recorded a .517 OPS since returning from the 60-day injured list Aug. 29, though he is currently on a three-game hitting streak. Mike Ford will ride the bench Monday in favor of Duffy.

Duffy (back) was reinstated from the 60-day injured list Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Duffy had been on the injured list since the end of June, but he spent the last few weeks on a rehab assignment at Triple-A Salt Lake and hit .179 with a run, an RBI, a walk and six strikeouts over eight minor-league games. Duffy isn't starting Monday against the Yankees and will likely have to compete with Luis Rengifo for playing time at third base over the final month of the season.

Duffy (back) has gone 1-for-10 with three strikeouts over three games in a rehab sting with Triple-A Salt Lake.

EDGE Analysis

Duffy kicked off the rehab assignment Tuesday and has thus far played one game each at first base, third base and DH. The veteran hasn't played in a big-league game since June 26, when he was pulled from a contest against Seattle with lower back tightness. Duffy isn't eligible to be activated until next weekend, so he'll likely continue logging at-bats with the Triple-A club in the meantime.

Duffy (back) will begin a rehab assignment next week, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Duffy has been out with lower-back spasms since late June. His late-July move to the 60-day injured list means he can't return until near the end of August, so his rehab assignment won't be a particularly brief one.

Duffy (back) was transferred to the 60-day injured list Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Duffy appeared to be closing in on a return, as he began baseball activities Friday. However, he now won't be eligible to return until at least late August. David Fletcher was activated from the injured list in a corresponding move.

Duffy (back) has progressed to light baseball activities but is being conservative with his bask spasms in hopes that the injury doesn't flare up, per MLB.com.

EDGE Analysis

Angels head athletic trainer Mike Frostad indicated July 15 that Duffy has been able to play catch and swing a bat, but the veteran infielder hasn't yet started a rehab assignment. He last played June 26 before departing with what was later diagnosed as lower bask spasms. Duffy slashed .261/.308/.291 with no homers, seven runs and five RBI over 143 plate appearances before landing on the IL.

Duffy was placed on the 10-day injured list Monday due to lower-back spasms.

EDGE Analysis

Duffy exited Sunday's game against Seattle due to the injury, which is evidently serious enough to knock him out for at least 10 days. Matt Thaiss was recalled to take his place on the roster.

Duffy was removed from Sunday's game against the Mariners in the top of the fourth inning due to lower back tightness.

EDGE Analysis

Duffy went 0-for-1 with a strikeout to begin Sunday's matchup, but he was replaced defensively in the top of the fourth inning. The 31-year-old should tentatively be considered day-to-day prior to Monday's series opener against the White Sox.

Duffy isn't starting Saturday against the Mariners, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

EDGE Analysis

Duffy will get a breather after he went 3-for-16 with a double, a walk and four strikeouts over the last four games. Tyler Wade is starting at the hot corner and batting eighth.
