2/18/24	Why new Red Sox reliever (had 2.71 ERA with Yankees) is 'like a cockroach'. New Red Sox reliever Lucas Luetge has a fun and interesting way to describe himself as a professional baseball player. “I always tell people I'm like a cockroach,” Luetge said Saturday at JetBlue Park. The 36-year-old left — who has gone through it all in his career but keeps returning for more — signed a minor league contract with the Red Sox right before spring training. The 2008 21st round draft pick out of Rice pitched well as a 25-year-old rookie in 2012, posting a 3.98 ERA in 63 outings for Seattle. Source: https://www.masslive.com/redsox/2024/02/why-new-re...

The terms of the agreement with the Red Sox were not specified, but based on the way Luetge's 2023 season went with the Braves, we can assume that the contract is a minor-league deal with an invite to spring training. This comes after a breakout stint with the Yankees where Luetge snapped a six-year odyssey back to the big leagues. Source: https://www.nj.com/yankees/2024/02/ex-yankees-reli...

Luetge announced the signing himself on Twitter and Instagram. He did not provide the terms of the contract but it is a minor league deal, according to an industry source.

He posted a 2.71 ERA, 2.92 FIP and 1.25 WHIP in 107 outings (129 ? innings) for the Yankees in 2021-22 combined. He averaged 9.6 strikeouts and 2.2 walks per nine innings.

10/23/23	Around the Empire: Yankees news. Baseball America: The Lucas Luetge trade with the Atlanta Braves in late 2022 gave the Yankees a very intriguing prospect in Caleb Durbin. The infielder was, in the week that just finished, one of the hottest players in the Arizona Fall League with two homers, five walks, three steals and a 9-for-19 showing for Mesa. Durbin battled some injuries in the year, but reached Double-A and had a .291/.361/.440 line and a 122 wRC+ in 47 games there, with four homers, 21 steals and a beautiful 4.6-percent strikeout rate. Capable of playing second, third, and shortstop, there is a chance Durbin makes it all the way to MLB next year or is used as a trade piece.

2/19/23	Yankees have under-the-radar lefty in bullpen mix with 'game-changer' pitch. Lucas Luetge was an inconspicuous reliever in Yankees camp at the start of spring training 2021, a non-roster left-hander with a minor-league contract. Luetge also was 33 at the time with an underwhelming 90-mph fastball. Luetge got into nine Grapefruit League outings that spring and didn't allow a run in eight of them. Luetge was no fluke, either, as he went onto to put up sub-3 ERA numbers for the next two seasons as a Yankees reliever, 2.74 ERA over 57 outings in 2021 and then 2.67 in 50 appearances last season.
