5/16/24 Mets Notebook: Team options Joey Lucchesi to Triple-A, Tylor Megill coming off IL Monday. The Mets optioned left-hander Joey Lucchesi to Triple-A Syracuse after his start in Philadelphia and called up left-hander Josh Walker, giving the bullpen a second lefty and someone who can provide some length. To start with the good news, right-hander Tylor Megill will come off the injured list Monday when the Mets open a series against the Guardians in Cleveland. What happens with rotation with the addition of Megill is yet to be determined, especially since Kodai Senga threw a bullpen with good results Thursday in New York.

5/14/24 Mets planning to start Joey Lucchesi instead of Adrian Houser Wednesday vs. Phillies. After Carlos Mendoza warmed up Adrian Houser in the ninth inning Tuesday to potentially protect an overused bullpen, the Mets now are planning to start Joey Lucchesi on Wednesday night in Philadelphia, The Post has learned. The Mets did not announce the decision following their 4-0 loss to the Phillies at Citi Field. But the choice they were strongly favoring was to summon Lucchesi to make his first appearance of 2024, sources told The Post. Houser was pulled from the rotation after his ERA climbed to 5.23 in a May 2 start against the Cubs. With the Mets in a period in which they are playing 13 straight days and 26 times in 27 days, Houser was going to be re-inserted into the rotation Wednesday.

4/25/24 Syracuse Mets fall to Columbus, 9-1. The Syracuse Mets faltered late in Thursday night's ballgame, dropping a 9-1 decision to the Columbus Clippers on a chilly evening at NBT Bank Stadium. The Clippers still trail the series two games to one after the Mets won on Tuesday and Wednesday evening. Early on, Syracuse (12-10) received another strong start from Joey Lucchesi who navigated through some potential choppy waters to allow just two runs (one earned) on six hits in five innings, walking two and striking out three. Lucchesi's greatest ability on Thursday night was the art of the escape, stranding nine runners on base in his six innings of work.

3/15/24 Mets option Joey Lucchesi to Triple-A as Opening Day roster comes into view. PORT ST. LUCIE — Joey Lucchesi began camp behind other Mets pitchers in terms of offseason build-up and ultimately got left in the rearview. The left-hander was optioned to Triple-A on Friday, as the team began rationing innings for pitchers. Lucchesi pitched just once in the Grapefruit League, on Tuesday when he allowed four earned runs on four hits and a walk over 1 ¹/3 innings against the Nationals. Lucchesi initially was a candidate to replace injured Kodai Senga in the starting rotation. He will now continue lengthening out in the minor leagues. Tylor Megill appears to be the front-runner for Senga's spot, but Jose Butto is also a contender. “[Lucchesi] was a little bit behind when he reported

2/27/24 Mets veteran lost his 'belly,' but he's hungry for roster spot: 'I want to earn more money'. One New York Mets veteran may actually be in the best shape of his life this season, embracing change for the sake of becoming a full-time major leaguer. Pitcher Joey Lucchesi's lifestyle change began a year ago, he explained to MLB.com's Anthony DiComo. It was then that he tapped into the expertise of Francesco Rossi, a holistic therapist, who transformed his diet — grass-fed meat, fish, tea, no candy and ice cream — and even had Lucchesi using cold tubs and Chinese medicine. According to MLB.com, Lucchesi, 31, weighs 216 pounds, down from 242 at the start of last spring training.

10/16/23 Joey Lucchesi was solid when called upon for the Mets. Joey Lucchesi seemed to finally be coming into his own during the 2021 season when he unfortunately needed to undergo Tommy John surgery, which ended his season and forced him to miss all of the following year. In 2023, he was expected to provide rotation depth, but despite Justin Verlander and José Quintana missing the beginning of the year with injuries, Lucchesi didn't make the rotation out of spring training and didn't make his season debut until April 21 against the Giants. The team lost all three games against Detroit, Colorado, and Washington, and shortly after, he was sent back to Triple-A and was not seen again until August for a successful spot start against the Cardinals. Lucchesi closed the year with three successful starts in September and put in one outstanding effort against the Diamondbacks, during which he again completed seven innings.

9/28/23 Mets pitcher was in car accident before most recent start. After winning his final start on Wednesday, Mets pitcher Joey Lucchesi told reporters that his Uber got into an accident while leaving Citi Field Tuesday night. Lucchesi says he is alright and was a “little sore” in his back, but did not want to miss his last start. “The police were chasing this stranger, and then the guy collided into our car,” Lucchesi said, per SNY. Lucchesi said the Uber driver couldn't use the vehicle, but that Tylor Megill was there and took the left-hander and his family back to the hotel.
