Mets manager Terry Collins said Monday that Lucas Duda is the leading candidate to replace Carlos Beltran if (or when) he is traded before the deadline. This shouldn't come as a major surprise. Duda, 25, is batting .280/.351/.441 with one home run and 14 RBI over 134 plate appearances this season and is certainly deserving of a longer look. This would be a good time to stash him in NL-only leagues if he's still available.
