“If you rewind to last year we didn’t know how hurt he was,” Dukes said. “At the end of the day though, if I went back and said what if Dansby Swanson could be a 30 home run, 100 RBI guy, you would have laughed.

He’s now looking like the No. 1 pick that Arizona took him with, and makes them look bad for making that trade when they did.
