Honestly Lucas has been a bit unlucky in his last 2 starts, but a lot of that is the product of the other teams just poking hits against him on his change up. His fastball isn't good enough to make them respect it so they end up sitting on his best pitch. Expand Yep and his breaking pitch isn’t sharp enough. He looks cooked this year.

Expand With him the fastball has kind of been a show me pitch, especially after the sticky ban. With less to show due to lower velo, teams don't think he'll throw it later in the count and just sit on his off-speed pitches. His control on it has also been incredibly inconsistent this year.
