The New York Mets needed a big pitching performance out of starting pitcher Seth Lugo to avoid a sweep against the crosstown New York Yankees on Sunday, and they got one. Lugo dominated the Yankees across six scoreless innings pitched, allowing only two hits without any walks and eight strikeouts. What a night for Lugo, who is quickly removing any doubt that he belongs in the starting rotation. [...]

New York Mets starting pitcher Seth Lugo has been quite effective out of the bullpen in 2018, but he was just as good in a short but effective outing against the Chicago Cubs on Thursday. Making his first start of the season in place of the injured Noah Syndergaard (finger), Lugo didn't allow any runs over four innings pitched. He surrendered only three hits while striking out three and didn't walk anyone in the process. Lugo will likely get at least one more start in place of Syndergaard, with [...]

New York Mets reliever Seth Lugo has been great out of the bullpen in 2018, but on Monday against the Atlanta Braves he simply did not have it. Lugo was entrusted to throw the final two innings for the Amazins', and blew a lead in each of those innings. After allowing a run to tie the game at two apiece in the bottom of the eighth inning, Lugo blew the save again in the bottom of the ninth by surrendering two for the walk-off loss. According to manager Mickey Callaway, with a tired bullpen and t[...]

New York Mets starting pitcher Seth Lugo was scheduled to make his first start of the season for the team's second game of their series against the Philadelphia Phillies on Tuesday, but with Monday's game being snowed out, Lugo will now have his start skipped. For the remaining two games of the series, the Amazins are still rolling with Harvey for Game 1 on Tuesday, but will instead have ace Noah Syndergaard take the mound on [...]

New York Mets starting pitcher Seth Lugo is expected to open the season in the Mets' starting rotation, according to Matt Ehalt of the Bergen Record. It is not as good of news as it sounds for Lugo, as he is likely just keeping the seat warm until Jason Vargas returns from surgery on his non-pitching hand. That is expected to be in mid-April, so Lugo may only make one turn before being reassigned. Lugo earned the look with a strong spring, posting a 2.87 ERA and 0.96 [...]

New York Mets starting pitcher Seth Lugo has been out since the middle of August with right shoulder impingement, but it sounds as though he may return shortly. According to manager Terry Collins, Lugo threw a bullpen session on Friday and could start one game of the Mets' doubleheader against the [...]

Seth Lugo was coming off a solid road start against the Miami Marlins, and seemed to be in an advantageous position against the [...]

Last Friday against the offensively-inept San Francisco Giants, Seth Lugo should have cruised to an easy win when the Mets staked him to a 7-1 lead. That didn't exactly happen as he surrendered four earns in 5 2/3 innings pitched, but fortunately he was able to rebound on Thursday against the Marlin[...]
