Duff is the fastest 2024 that I have seen, and his speed is a weapon in all facets of the game. A dynamic athlete with game-changing ability, he is an advanced defender in centerfield with impressive routes taken along with strong glove-skill. At the plate, the 5-foot-5, 140-pounder has minimal pre pitch movement, and takes a more direct path to the ball with quickness to the hands. He turned around a nearly 90 mph fastball early on in the tournament, and went 4.1 on the turn. Unafraid on the diamond, Duff’s shorter stature does not resemble the bigger impact that he has on games.
