Lucas Duda breaks out with two homers in loss to Phillies
Heading into the rubber game with the Phillies, few people looking at the match-up would have expected a big outing from New York Mets outfielder Lucas Duda. That is, however, exactly what he delivered. The Big Ox took Cliff Lee deep to right-centerfield on the first pitch he saw in the sixth inning before belting his second home run of the night in the ninth, a solo blast against...

Gee Dominates, Duda Homers In Mets 6-1 Win
Yesterday, the Mets made the Padres look like they were a powerhouse contending team after an embarrassing 11-5 loss. Luckily the real Padres showed up tonight and the Mets had their bats swinging, Gee dominating, and Citi Field was rocking.
Dillon Gee now has back-to-back good starts since losing his goatee. He was dominant on the mound mixing up his pitches, getting the called...

Mets Even Series, Take Down Pirates 3-2
Last night the Mets evened their series against the Pirates on the strength of a big eighth inning hit off the bat of Lucas Duda and a huge pitching performance from R.A. Dickey.
The Mets have seemed a little too lackluster over the last few days for my taste, but really rose above it last night to deliver a much needed victory. Key to this win was R.A. Dickey’s fantastic...

Someone Call PPL, The Mets Have a Major Power Outage
Lucas Duda and the rest of the Mets lineup have not produced much offensive power this season.
Coming into the season it was expected that the New York Mets would be missing a few things and also be a bottom feeding team. Well, they aren’t bottom feeding but they are definitely missing a few things.
The main thing missing is power. There is no power on this team.
Ike Davis is...

Lucas Duda has got to start pulling his weight
With the Mets now getting a little more production from Ike Davis (3-7 in his last two games with two home runs and four RBI’s in his last two games), it’s high time that Lucas Duda starts contributing to the Mets’ bandwagon.
While the Mets lost in Miami last night 6-5, the team was right there in the mix after mounting another comeback, only to see it foiled by Frank Francisco...

Is too much hype being bestowed on Lucas Duda?
The secret is out, Lucas Duda is good.
And while that is good news for the Mets, sometimes it’s best for some things to be kept a secret.
After blowing up in the second half of last year while batting .322 with 10 home runs and 38 RBI’s in 205 at-bats, a lot more is expected out of Duda this year. His power potential is tickling the fancy of many Mets’ fans in need of some...
