          PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- Lucas Duda plans to go through Thursday's first full-squad workout with one exception: He will not swing a bat, the first baseman said.

          Duda has been dealing with an intercostal muscle strain on his left side. The issue has been present for a couple of weeks.

          Manager Terry Collins has said he believes Duda will resume swinging within days.

          Duda has done fielding drills with other position players all week.
