Lucas Duda (hamstring) is scheduled to return to Grapefruit League action on Friday. Duda will first play in a minor league game on Thursday. He's been slowed by tightness in his left hamstring but should have enough time to get himself prepared for Opening Day. Duda is still battling Ike Davis for starting first base duties, but word is that Davis is being shopped by the Mets' front office.
