Duffy

DK has the scoop on the AWOL Chris Duffy: Duffy's decision to not report to Indy has been motivated by "a general unhappiness with playing the game much more than dissatisfaction with the team."

The stress from faltering in the early part of the season had taken a sharp toll on Duffy, the sources said, to the point that he had become tightly wound on and off the field and had questioned his desire to continue his career.

In stark contrast, one of the sources said, Duffy was describing relief bordering on joy shortly after deciding not to report to Class AAA Indianapolis when the Pirates optioned him there May 14.

I don't know what to make of this. Is Duffy mental? If so, would the Pirates deny his medical condition, only to admit months later that they were wrong? Anyway, good luck with everything, Chris.
