EDGE Analysis

Lugo's first stint in the majors lasted only two days as he will head back to Triple-A Las Vegas with Juan Lagares coming off the DL. Lugo tossed two scoreless innings Friday against the Cubs in his major league debut. The 26-year-old will now look to turn his season around in Las Vegas as he's collected a 6.55 ERA and 1.69 WHIP over 68.2 innings with the Mets' minor league affiliate.
