"Lucchesi posted a 3.76 ERA, 7.3% walk rate, and 18.8% strikeout rate over 38 1/3 innings out of the Giants' bullpen after his contract was selected in mid-June."
"Left-handed hitters have rarely been able to do much against Lucchesi, as he has held lefty swingers to a .219/.296/.301 slash line over his career."
"Lucchesi is out of minor league options, which adds another hurdle in his quest to land with a new team."
Joey Lucchesi was released by the Giants after being non-tendered last November and re-signed to a minor league deal. The signing of Ryan Borucki made Lucchesi expendable. He had a 3.76 ERA and a strong grounder rate during his time with the Giants. Lucchesi worked exclusively out of the bullpen in 2025, showing potential for longer stints. However, he is out of minor league options, complicating his chances of finding a new team, though left-handed depth is always in demand.
