Three hits to help complete sweep Lukes went 3-for-5 with two doubles, two runs scored and two RBI in Thursday's win over the Yankees.
Impact Getting the start in center field and batting leadoff with Bo Bichette (knee) not quite ready to return, Lukes provided a spark in an 8-5 victory that completed a four-game sweep of the Yankees and launched the Blue Jays into first place in the AL East. The 30-year-old outfielder has been fairly productive since returning from a concussion June 20, batting .286 (10-for-35) in his last 12 games with two doubles, five runs, seven RBI and a 6:4 BB:K. However, Lukes' playing time will take a hit once Daulton Varsho (hamstring) is ready to come off the IL, something which could happen before the All-Star break.

Sitting against righty Lukes is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Yankees.
Impact The left-handed-hitting Lukes was on the bench for both of the past two contests while the Blue Jays faced lefties, but his absence from the lineup Wednesday comes while New York sends a right-hander (Will Warren) to the hill. With Lukes sitting again, Toronto will go with a starting outfield of Davis Schneider, Myles Straw and Addison Barger from left to right.

Idle against lefty Lukes is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Yankees.
Impact The Yankees are sending a lefty starter (Max Fried) to the hill for the second day in a row, and the left-handed-hitting Lukes has now found himself on the bench for both of the first two contests of the series. Lukes will once again give way in center field to Myles Straw, who will bat sixth.

Handling regular role in outfield Lukes will start in center field and bat fifth in Sunday's game against the Red Sox.
Impact Since returning from the 7-day injured list June 20, Lukes has re-emerged as a regular in the Toronto lineup. He'll pick up his eight start in nine games following his activation from the IL, with the left-handed-hitting outfielder's lone absence from the lineup during that stretch coming this past Tuesday against Guardians southpaw Logan Allen. Lukes -- who has gotten on base at a .351 clip this season -- is capable of playing all three outfield spots, so he could have a path to seeing steady starts against right-handed pitching until the Blue Jays get both Daulton Varsho (hamstring) and Anthony Santander (shoulder) back from the IL.
