Who knows it could be a number of things.

I wouldn't deliberately tank if I were him, but I'd also try to maximize my assets. I think Duffy should be traded, but I can at least see an argument to keeping him. But keeping Merrifield or trading him for lower ceiling talent does nothing to help us actually contend. Lopez will likely be up next year leaving a roster crunch in the middle infield. Something has to give there.
