| 10/27/24 | What should the Red Sox do with Lucas Sims in free agency?. The Boston Red Sox have 10 players set to hit the market when the World Series between the New York Yankees and Los Angeles Dodgers concludes in the next week or so. At that point, Red Sox chief baseball officer Craig Breslow and his team will have to decide what to do about all those pending free agents, including relief pitcher Lucas Sims. Boston acquired the right-handed reliever from the Cincinnati Reds at the trade deadline for pitching prospect Ovis Portes. Source: https://www.sportingnews.com/us/mlb/boston-red-sox... |
| 9/27/24 | Red Sox 2024 grades: Trade deadline duo gets pair of Fs, but starters pass. With the 2024 Red Sox season all but over, it's time to hand out report cards. On the second Fenway Rundown podcast of the week, two of MassLive's Red Sox writers (Chris Cotillo and Sean McAdam) handed out grades for each and every pitcher on the roster. (Position player grades were handed out Tuesday and can be found here.) Here's a list of those grades. To hear explanations on why each player got the grade he did, listen to the full podcast episode here . The players are presented below in the order we discussed them on the podcast. GRADES: RP RP Luis García — F (Cotillo) / F (McAdam) RP Lucas Sims — F (Cotillo) / F (McAdam) RP Bailey Horn — F (Cotillo) / F (McAdam) RP Cam Booser — B- (Cotillo) Source: https://www.masslive.com/redsox/2024/09/red-sox-20... |
| 9/19/24 | Key Reliever Returns To Red Sox Prior To Series Finale Vs. Rays. The Red Sox expected Lucas Sims to make more of a mark during the September stretch run when they acquired the reliever from the Cincinnati Reds at the trade deadline, but an injury prevented that from happening. The Red Sox activated Sims from the injured list prior to Thursday's series finale against the Tampa Bay Rays at Tropicana Field. Boston optioned lefty Bailey Horn to Triple-A Worcester to make room for Sims on the active roster. Source: https://nesn.com/2024/09/key-reliever-returns-to-r... |
| 9/16/24 | Former Red Sox Top Prospect Traded At Deadline Earns First Big-League Call-Up. The 2024 Major League Baseball trade deadline will long be seen as a pivot point in this Boston Red Sox season, for better or worse. In the thick of a playoff hunt, the Red Sox knew they had to "pick a lane." It's easy to harp on trades that obviously didn't work, like acquiring rental relief pitchers Lucas Sims and Luis Garcia, but those moves are already in the past, at least from Boston's perspective. It will be more interesting to see how a more forward-thinking trade the Red Sox made works out long-term. Source: https://www.si.com/mlb/red-sox/boston-red-sox-news... |
| 9/10/24 | Red Sox Underperforming Trade Acquisition Has Hurt His Stock, Says New Report. To their credit, the Red Sox bought more this season than they did at the past two deadlines combined, thanks to an exciting first half that had Boston in the thick of the wild card hunt. Lucas Sims and Lucas Garcia were two of the worst second-half relievers in baseball before hitting the injured list on the same day. James Paxton got hurt in his third outing back in Boston. Quinn Priester hasn't pitched for the Red Sox in the big leagues yet. Source: https://www.si.com/mlb/red-sox/boston-red-sox-news... |
| 8/27/24 | Red Sox trade-deadline acquisition lands on 15-day IL, right-handed reliever recalled. The Boston Red Sox have just had some awful luck with injuries this season, especially to their pitching staff, and on Tuesday, things got worse. After placing right-handed reliever Lucas Sims on the injured list earlier in the afternoon, Boston also placed right-handed reliever Luis Garcia on the 15-day injured list with elbow inflammation. To fill his spot, the team has recalled Josh Winckowski from Triple-A Worcester. Source: https://www.sportingnews.com/us/mlb/boston-red-sox... |
| 8/20/24 | As Red Sox bullpen falters again, a dramatic reversal of late-innings fortune is needed to salvage playoff hopes. “It's a beautiful game, but sometimes it's tough,” said righthander Lucas Sims, who was charged with a blown save (his second as a Red Sox, and the team's major league-leading 12th since the All-Star break – four more than any other team), unable to preserve a 4-3 advantage while allowing a run in the eighth. It will take more than resilience to overcome the team's current gap in the standings. The Sox will require a dramatic reversal of late-innings fortune.

| 8/19/24 | Bullpen falters again as the Red Sox' playoff hopes dim. “It's a beautiful game, but sometimes it's tough,” said righthander Lucas Sims, who was charged with a blown save (his second as a Red Sox, and the team's major league-leading 12th since the All-Star break – four more than any other team), unable to preserve a 4-3 advantage while allowing a run in the eighth.

| 8/17/24 | Just how bad have Red Sox pitchers been since the All-Star break?. Earlier in the season, the Boston Red Sox were getting some incredible performances from their pitchers nearly every time through the rotation, and the bullpen was good enough to close games consistently. After the Red Sox were able to outlast the Los Angeles Angels in a 12-10 win on Friday, the numbers are appalling. According to MassLive's Chris Cotillo, since the break, Boston pitchers have the worst ERA in baseball (6.10), allowed the most hits (274), most runs (182) and most home runs (55). Trade deadline acquisitions like Lucas Sims and Luis Garcia haven't helped in the way that the team hoped. Source: https://www.sportingnews.com/us/mlb/news/red-sox-p... |
| 8/13/24 | Kenley Jansen Delivers Message To Alex Cora Before Save Vs. Rangers. Red Sox reliever Lucas Sims, who came over from the Cincinnati Reds at the trade deadline, said he makes sure to listen whenever Kenley Jansen speaks. "They called down in the eighth when we sent (Bailey) Horn (in), and he's like, 'I'm ready for four,' and I'm like, 'Ok, thank you,'" Cora said.

| 8/10/24 | Red Sox Rookie Reliever Flying Under Radar As Valuable Bullpen Asset. The Boston Red Sox bullpen wasn't up to snuff on Friday night. Lucas Sims was the main culprit, allowing four earned runs on just 16 pitches in 1/3 of an inning pitched. When lefty reliever Cam Booser took the mound in the top of the ninth, Boston trailed 5-3 and was still banking on late-game heroics. Source: https://www.si.com/mlb/red-sox/boston-red-sox-news... |
| 8/09/24 | Why'd Red Sox pull Tanner Houck, go to bullpen at 82 pitches? Alex Cora explains. Considering how well his bullpen has pitched since getting reinforced with the additions of Lucas Sims and Luis García at the trade deadline and Chris Martin in his return from the injured list earlier this week, Red Sox manager Alex Cora didn't hesitate to go to his bullpen after just 82 pitches from starter Tanner Houck on Friday night. “Come on, bro,” said Cora when asked if he considered sending Houck out for the seventh.

| 8/03/24 | Rehabbing Pitcher Liam Hendriks Reveals Target For Red Sox Debut. The Boston Red Sox got bullpen help at the trade deadline when they added two relievers in Lucas Sims and Luis García to the mix. Liam Hendriks, who is rehabbing from Tommy John surgery he had last season, is inching closer to his Red Sox debut and told NESN's Tom Caron prior to Saturday's game against the Texas Rangers that he looks to be back for Boston sometime this month.

| 8/01/24 | New Red Sox Relief Pitcher Cracks Joke After Clutch Boston Debut. Lucas Sims was thrown into the fire to kick off his Red Sox tenure. Sims, who Boston acquired from the Cincinnati Reds on Tuesday, was called on to relieve starter Brayan Bello in Wednesday's series finale against Seattle. The Mariners were threatening to break a 2-2 tie when Sims was summoned from the bullpen with runners on first and second and only one out in the seventh. The Red Sox went on to walk it off in the 10th when Rafael Devers smacked a game-winning double off the Green Monster. Source: https://nesn.com/2024/08/new-red-sox-relief-pitche... |
| 7/31/24 | New Red Sox reliever ready to unleash 'new/old' pitch he debuted vs. Rafael Devers. Red Sox bullpen addition Lucas Sims joined his new team Wednesday at Fenway Park armed with a new weapon he recently unleashed against a dangerous hitter who is now his teammate. While facing the Red Sox on June 22, Sims, then a long-tenured member of the Reds bullpen, was tasked with facing Rafael Devers with runners on the corners and one out in a game that was tied, 3-3. Looking for a new way to attack a left-handed hitter, Sims — who throughout his career had featured a mix that was heavy on four-seamers and sweepers while occasionally mixing in a curveball — threw a cutter on a 1-2 count.

| 7/31/24 | New Red Sox Reliever Once Had Hilarious Moment With Umpire. It feels safe to assume the average Red Sox fan wasn't too familiar with Lucas Sims when Boston acquired him from Cincinnati on Tuesday. Sims thus far has had a mostly average MLB career, which kicked off with a season-plus in Atlanta before six campaigns and some change with the Reds. The 30-year-old was on the mound for Cincinnati back in April 2021 when the Reds and the Arizona Diamondbacks were trying to finish their game amid a torrential downpour. Players found themselves in virtually unplayable conditions, so Sims took matters into his own hands. Source: https://nesn.com/2024/07/new-red-sox-reliever-once... |

| 7/30/24 | Alex Cora Shares Where Lucas Sims Fits In Red Sox Bullpen. The Red Sox took care of a need and acquired reliever Lucas Sims from the Cincinnati Reds on Tuesday before the MLB trade deadline. The right-hander put together a solid season in the National League Central with a 3.57 ERA in 43 appearances for the Reds. “Good slider, good cutter,” Cora told reporters at Fenway Park. While the Red Sox wait for Chris Martin and Justin Slaten to return, Sims jumps into a group of relievers that will continue to impact late-game outcomes for the Red Sox in the middle of a playoff push.
