The Hanshin Tigers have signed LHP Easton Lucas.
Lucas (29) has struggled on the MLB stage.
He does have respectable stuff, and provided that the Tigers had been in a position to repair Jon Duplantier, this may very well be a very good touchdown spot for him.
Lucas, 29, was drafted within the 14th spherical of the 2019 draft by the Miami Marlins and spent a number of seasons within the minor leagues earlier than making his massive league debut in 2023 with the Oakland Athletics. He bounced across the league in 2024 earlier than being claimed by the Blue Jays late within the season.
The left-handed pitcher made his debut shortly after, however was essential in his first two begins, outdueling MacKenzie Gore and Garrett Crochet. Sadly, LucasMania got here to an finish in his third begin, and after his fourth begin, Lucas was optioned. He had three extra stints with the Jays, however by no means pitched in multiple sport. Lucas completed the season with the Triple-A Buffalo Bisons.
