Rest-of-Season Projections
2023 Fantasy Outlook
Lukes was signed by Toronto as a minor-league free agent in November 2021 and was immediately added to the 40-man roster, and he spent his first season in the organization at Triple-A Buffalo. He played in 111 games during 2022 and had a .285/.361/.425 slash line with 11 home runs and 20 stolen bases, with the long balls and steals representing career highs. The departure of Teoscar Hernandez opens up some reps in the outfield (as well as designated hitter) for the Blue Jays, which should increase the chances of Lukes making his MLB debut in 2023. Still, he doesn't exactly have a clear path to a regular role. Read Past Outlooks

Getting first start
Lukes is starting in right field and batting ninth for the Blue Jays on Wednesday versus the Astros, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca reports.
ANALYSIS
It will be the first start in the majors for Lukes, who is hitless in one plate appearance. George Springer is in the designated hitter spot Wednesday.

Stat Review
How does Nathan Lukes compare to other hitters?
This section compares his stats with all batting seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 400 plate appearances)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that stat and it would be considered average.
* Exit Velocity and Barrels/PA % are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 400 PA) and Hard Hit Rate is benchmarked against last season's data (min 400 PA). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.
