what happened to Lucas Duda?

1- He sucks

2- He strained something and is on a rehab assignment.

If we can't beat the Mets without Lucas Duda, then we don't deserve to make hte playoffs.

Clearly you guys didn't do your job in the Fredi chat.

[Julio3000]

At least they don't have the T-hole anymore.

[Tapate50]

Gah, Heyward has been so unlucky!

You don't hear the Heyward/Upton defenders anymore.

I'm ok with Heyward because of his elite defense but Upton is a big problem moving forward. Arizona seems like the smart one now.

Not really thethe. Prado is having a worse year than both of them

Prado still plays great defense and Delgado has been good.

We got the much better end of that deal. Wouldnt say Prado's D is great but certainly better than the other two. Delgado hasn't been better than Julio. We improved the team.

[Julio3000]

Delgado's doing well. I'd still make that deal every day.

Heyward had a hit, a walk, and a screamer to the LF warning track yesterday. He's fine.

[NYCBrave]

Prado still plays great defense and Delgado has been good.

Prado has a .680 OPS out of the 3B position, and Delgado has a 1.43 whip and .314 BAA. If either of these guys were on our team this year, we'd be complaining to get them out of the lineup/rotation.

[parkvadawg]

We should strikeout more

What in the jail are you talking about? Do you even read this board?

[CyYoung31]

If you think Arizona won that trade you need to pack up your things and go home.
