Lueke Back to the Rays

Josh Lueke

Will the third time be the charm? Maybe.

Josh Lueke has been called up to the Tampa Bay Rays for the third time this season. Rays reliever Kyle Farnsworth has been designated for assignment. Lueke has done a terrific job for the Bulls this year. Over his 50 innings he’s only let 4 runs score, and no home runs. Farnsworth is unlikely to show up in Durham; however, the no rumors are in the air about who might show up to fill Lueke’s spot. Maybe Juan Sandoval who went down to the Biscuits at the end of June?

Yeah, I know, I’ve called him the ‘human rain delay’, but that doesn't mean I don’t appreciate the 14 saves or a blazing fastball. Good luck, Mr. Lueke.
