7/03/25 | Several Jays play a role in surge up standings. Contributions from all four corners of the Toronto Blue Jays roster have played a massive role in their two-month ascension to the top spot in the American League East. There were many examples of different players leading the way in the Blue Jays' first four-game home sweep of the division-rival New York Yankees in team history. Deadlocked in the fourth inning of the series finale on Thursday, a dogged Nathan Lukes endured a 14-pitch at-bat to poke a two-run double down the left-field line that sparked the home side to an 8-5 win before 36,848 at Rogers Centre. With Bo Bichette nursing a sore knee, Lukes was the third different player Toronto manager John Schneider employed in the leadoff role in the series after Ernie Clement and Andres Gimenez took turns.

9/10/24 | Nathan Lukes has done nothing but hit since joining the Blue Jays. But is he too old to be part of the new wave?. The Blue Jays have gone full youth movement since gutting the team at the July 30 trade deadline, and the kids have brought an energy and enthusiasm that wasn't seen around these parts earlier in the season. Thirty-year-old Nathan Lukes (pronounced Lucas) was finally called up Aug. 30, three weeks after returning from thumb surgery that had him on the sidelines for two months, and is batting .435 with the big club. Since the Jays signed the Oregonian to a minor-league contract before the 2022 season, all he has done is hit. It started with a solid 2022 in Buffalo after two seasons in the Cleveland organization and another four with Tampa Bay, and he finally made his major-league debut on opening day last year, pinch-running for Brandon Belt and scoring the tying run in an eventual 10-9 Jays win in St. Louis.
