10/02/24 Kansas City Royals Closer Erceg Just Continues Terrific Season. When the Oakland A's traded for Lucas Erceg from the Milwaukee Brewers in 2023, it was unclear exactly what the Athletics were getting. Erceg had been a position player prospect turned pitcher, and was acquired from the Brewers, a certified pitching factory, for cash. For Milwaukee to trade him for so little was a bit odd. Not long after that deal, Erceg was in Oakland, making his MLB debut.

7/30/24 [NBC Sports Bay Area] - Report: A's finalizing trade to send RHP Erceg to Royals. The Athletics appear to be parting ways with one of their top relievers. Oakland is finalizing a deal to send Lucas Erceg to the Kansas City Royals, ESPN’s Jeff Passan reported Tuesday afternoon, citing sources, just a few hours before MLB’s 3 p.m. PT trade deadline. The A’s will receive right-handed pitchers Mason Barnett and Will Klein, along with outfielder Jared Dickey from the Royals in exchange for Erceg. Erceg won’t reach arbitration eligibility until 2027 and can’t enter MLB free agency until 2030. He is due $750,000 and is under contractual control for five more years. Along with A’s All-Star closer Mason Miller, Erceg reportedly also from teams around the league before the deadline. His bullpen appearances have set up Miller for closing dominance for a majority of the 2024 season. The 29-year-old righty has a 3.68 ERA over 50 appearances through the 2024 MLB season, and he averages 98.8 mph on his fastball — the 13th-best across the league. With Kansas City, Erceg can get a chance to close as James McArthur continues to struggle. Oakland, meanwhile, will have to find solutions elsewhere now without Erceg and while Miller recovers from a broken hand.

6/21/24 A's Make History in Come-From-Behind Win. The Minnesota Twins held a 5-4 lead in the top of the eighth and were threatening for more with runners on the corners and two down. After back-to-back hits off Lucas Erceg, A's manager Mark Kotsay decided to go to his bullpen to bring in Sean Newcomb, who made history. With two outs, Sean Newcomb recorded an out via pick-off, nabbing Austin Martin at first aftera brief rundown play, but did not officially face a batter (he threw two pitches). According to the A's Baseball Information Manager Mike Selleck, this is the first time in A's history that a pitcher has recorded a win without officially facing a batter.
