Extremely Promising Numbers For Lucas Luetge

I was extremely high on Lucas Luetge coming into this season, and it might be one of my better takes. His story was awesome, he hadn’t pitched an inning in the majors since 2015, back when Greg Bird looked like Don Mattingly. While he struggled early with a 6.10 ERA in his first 5 outings, his peripherals and strikeouts showed he had the potential to pitch better. He’s given the Yankees 6 straight scoreless outings out of the pen and boasts a 3.78 ERA and 3.08 SIERA so far. He’s been pretty solid so far, and I think that he may have finally found a role on the Yankees as a swiss army knife in the bullpen.
