So the Mets moved their left fielder to first base; you know, the same left fielder that Collins said, he won't be playing first, I want him to be able to play left field. Well if I didn't give it away with my clues, it's Lucas Duda. He will be starting at first base tonight with Murphy moving back to second base. Murphy should have never been moved but that's in an older post. So after saying that the Mets can't move Duda because they don't want him to be moved around, they move him...without ANY reps over at first base. I don't understand this organization. At this point, can you really trust this organization? Are they actually going to spend money this off season?
There are so many holes on this team that they need to spend money this off season. I'll tell you what positions they don't need instead of the positions they do, to try to keep this short. They don't need a third baseman, two starting pitchers, and a closer. You could add in second baseman and catcher. But if you do that, they need a solid and durable catcher behind Travis d'Arnaud.
Duda has turned into what seems to be an expendable piece, otherwise why mess with him as "your left fielder". They would have put Satin or Turner over there so Duda could learn the position and get some reps over there. Flores is still in the minor leagues, just hitting the ball better than most of the players on this major league club. Should Flores be called up? Should the Mets have so much stock in d'Arnaud? Should Duda have been moved to first base? If so, why not earlier?
