Jesus Luzardo Starting Monday's Game
3 years agoThe Miami Marlins have called up rookie left-handed pitcher Jesus Luzardo, and he will start Monday's game against the New York Mets. Luzardo was acquired before the trade deadline in a one-for-one deal with the Oakland Athletics in exchange for outfielder Starling Marte. Luzardo was immediately optioned to Triple-A Jacksonville, but did not make an appearance there. He'll make his Marlins and National League debut in the series opener against the Mets. There is a ton of upside in Luzardo's left arm, but the small sample of his big league numbers shows that there may still be some work to be done. Luzardo should be rostered in all dynasty and keeper formats, but redraft managers may want to wait and see how the lefty does in his first start or two on his new team.
