1B/DH FA
Lucas Duda went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Tuesday's loss to the Dodgers.
Duda hit his fifth home run of the season when he took Josh Beckett deep in the sixth inning. There was a bit of symmetry as Ike Davis, formerly his competition for the first base job with the Mets, also homered for the Pirates on Tuesday night. The Mets are still hoping to see increased production out of the position, as Duda has an uninspiring .250/.326/.411 slash line in 138 plate appearances.
