And now back to reality...

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

I hear he's just about 2 weeks away or less from a return....

Hopefully he'll abide on a more frequent basis when he does get back....

I thought Duda would be in Vegas by now.

That's where he is now....rehabbing his way back via the farm.

Next stop ....Queens....in a week or 2.

Him and Ike should stay there permanently .... Well I guess Duda could be ok but he seems more like a Murphy decent hitter without a true position. I would like to see him get traded.

LOL Nice Lebowski reference .

LOL Nice Lebowski reference .

I agree, that was nicely done.

 

[Chef99]

Heh...I just felt like revisiting this thread.

Dude, I had such high hopes for ya last year...

I see that now, I can't stand this guy. Worse than Ike.

It wouldn't be so bad if he could at least play the field. Last year showed that he can't concentrate on hitting while he's trying to concentrate on defense at the same time. For his sake, he needs to go somewhere and be a DH.

Now, about Ike...maybe it's comeback time!

Oh I agree, which is why we should ship him off to an AL team for some pitching.

C'mon guys....
This just wouldn't be our beloved Metsies if we didn't have at least one or 2 players to kvetch about.
Let's just give him the botd and see what he does in ST.
We owe that to ourselves at the very minimum.

I believe he said he didn't like playing outfield last year and that it was negatively impacting his batting, he was in a bad mindset. Could be a complete bs excuse but hopefully being at first where he's more comfortable leads to improved at bats.

Bro, even the outfield didn't like him playing outfield last year.

Duda!!!

Yep, I'm back on the bandwagon!!!

And rightly so....lol.

He's actually been surprisingly effective.... his numbers don't lie.

For the end of the season can we get Flores up here to take over at first for the games Duda is off? I'd love for him to start getting some real at bats before we commit to him being our everyday second baseman.

So you're saying Murph is outta here next year? Ummmm....that would be a bad move imho...
*btw: Flores is already up here.

I'd rather they played "Soup" at 1B whenever Duda is off.....Flores could play 3B + SS to give DW & Tejada some rest though...and he'd get a good amount of AB's in that role.
