Optioned after another rough start
The Blue Jays optioned Lucas to Triple-A Buffalo on Monday, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca reports.
Analysis
After not allowing a run in his first two starts of the season, Lucas was pummeled for 14 runs across 6.2 frames covering his last two outings, resulting in a trip back to the minors. Lucas' turn in the rotation comes up this weekend against the Yankees, and it's unclear how the Blue Jays plan to fill the slot.

Tagged for six runs in loss
Lucas (2-2) took the loss Sunday against the Mariners, allowing six runs on seven hits and two walks over 1.2 innings with five strikeouts.
Analysis
The Toronto southpaw was pummeled again for a second consecutive start, as he tossed 55 pitches while failing to get out of the second inning. After opening the season with 10.1 scoreless innings across two wins, Lucas has coughed up 14 runs in 6.2 innings over his last two outings. Overall, the 28-year-old now sports an ugly 7.41 ERA and 1.53 WHIP with a 19:9 K:BB. Things aren't looking much easier ahead, as Lucas currently lines up to make his next start against the Yankees on the road next weekend.
