AUGUST 30 • THESTAR.COM
Summoned back to big club Toronto recalled Lucas from Triple-A Buffalo on Saturday.
Impact Lucas got into six MLB games (five as a starter) earlier this season, posting a 6.66 ERA, 1.52 WHIP and 23:12 K:BB over 24.1 innings. He pitched very well over his past three Triple-A outings, allowing just one run with a 16:6 K:BB over 14.2 frames, and will now get another chance with the big club. Lucas will likely work out of the bullpen this time around, though, as he's taking the roster spot of fellow lefty Justin Bruihl, who was optioned to Buffalo in a corresponding move.

Impact It was a long day for Toronto's pitching staff, which surrendered 16 runs on 19 hits, including four homers. It was the fifth start in six MLB appearances this year for Lucas, who has a 6.66 ERA and 23:12 K:BB across 24.1 innings. Paxton Schultz was called up to provide bullpen help for Tuesday's nightcap.

Impact Lucas will rejoin Toronto for the first time since late May, after he had previously turned in a 5.82 ERA and 1.43 WHIP in 21.2 innings over five appearances (four starts) with the big club prior to being demoted to Triple-A. His results with Buffalo haven't been much better (5.35 ERA, 1.48 WHIP in 33.2 frames), but Toronto will look for the 28-year-old southpaw to eat some innings in the front end of the twin bill before he likely heads back to Triple-A after the outing. Lucas will be taking the hill on three days' rest after making a three-inning start for Buffalo this past Friday, so the Blue Jays could keep his workload somewhat in check.

Back in action for Triple-A club Lucas (undisclosed) struck out three while giving up one hit and one walk over three scoreless innings Saturday in Triple-A Buffalo's 3-2 win over Omaha after being reinstated from...
Impact Lucas had started in six of his previous seven appearances with Buffalo prior to being shelved with the unspecified injury, but he was used out of the bullpen in his return to action Saturday, working in tandem with CJ Van Eyk, who covered the first 3.1 innings. Before his recent absence due to the injury, Lucas had made five appearances (four starts) for Toronto earlier this season, logging a 5.82 ERA and 1.43 WHIP in 21.2 innings. Unless additional injuries strike the Toronto rotation, Lucas likely won't be in line for a starting assignment with the big club in the near future.
JULY 21 • ROTOWIRE
Shelved at Triple-A Triple-A Buffalo placed Lucas on its 7-day injured list Tuesday due to an unspecified injury.
Impact Lucas' placement on the IL came a few days after he surrendered three earned runs on two hits and one walk over 1.2 innings in his first appearance with Buffalo since being demoted June 1. The southpaw previously made four starts with the big club earlier this season, but he's unlikely to receive another look with the Blue Jays anytime soon now that he's dealing with an injury and with Max Scherzer (thumb) tracking toward a return from the 60-day injured list next week.

Returns to Triple-A The Blue Jays optioned Lucas to Triple-A Buffalo on Sunday.
Impact The left-hander followed opener Braydon Fisher against the A's on Saturday and picked up the win after firing 4.2 scoreless innings, but he won't stick in the majors with Erik Swanson (forearm) returning from the injured list Sunday. Lucas has been boom-or-bust in his five MLB appearances this season, as he's covered 15 frames in three scoreless outings but has surrendered 14 runs in his other two starts.

Stifles A's in Saturday's win Lucas (3-2) picked up the win in Saturday's 8-7 victory over the A's, allowing four hits and a walk over 4.2 scoreless innings of relief. He struck out three.
Impact The southpaw entered the game with one out in the second inning after opener Braydon Fisher had coughed up five runs, and Lucas looked like he would have no more success than the right-hander did, quickly loading the bases on three straight singles. Lucas buckled down and escaped the jam, however, and cruised through the next four frames while the Toronto offense took control. This was expected to be just a spot outing in the rotation for the 28-year-old, who tossed 70 pitches (46 strikes), so he could be optioned right back to Triple-A Buffalo to make room for a fresh bullpen arm. If Lucas does stick around, however, Saturday's performance could give him a case to push Eric Lauer for the fifth starter role.

Recalled from Buffalo The Blue Jays recalled Lucas from Triple-A Buffalo on Saturday.
Impact Lucas was demoted to Buffalo in late April after posting a 7.41 ERA in 17 innings through his first four starts. His performance in Triple-A since then hasn't been much better (5.88 ERA in 26 IP), but he'll get the call back to Toronto anyway to replace Jose Urena, who was DFA'd by the Jays in a corresponding move. Lucas will presumably work as a long reliever while in the bigs.

Optioned after another rough start The Blue Jays optioned Lucas to Triple-A Buffalo on Monday, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca reports.
Impact After not allowing a run in his first two starts of the season, Lucas was pummeled for 14 runs across 6.2 frames covering his last two outings to earn a trip back to the minors. Lucas' turn in the rotation comes up this weekend against the Yankees and it's unclear how the Blue Jays plan to fill the slot.

Tagged for six runs in loss Lucas (2-2) took the loss Sunday against the Mariners, allowing six runs on seven hits and two walks over 1.2 innings with five strikeouts.
Impact The Toronto southpaw was pummeled again for a second consecutive start, as he tossed 55 pitches while failing to get out of the second inning. After opening the season with 10.1 scoreless innings across two wins, Lucas has coughed up 14 runs in 6.2 innings over his last two outings. Overall, the 28-year-old now sports an ugly 7.41 ERA and 1.53 WHIP with a 19:9 K:BB. Things aren't looking much easier ahead, as Lucas currently lines up to make his next start against the Yankees on the road next weekend.
