Lucas Sims was part of a trade deadline acquisition that ultimately backfired for the Red Sox. He struggled significantly during his time with the team, contributing to several critical meltdowns before joining the injured list. His performance was disappointing, and the team is ready to move on, hoping to forget the unsuccessful deadline moves.

Lucas Sims was called up to the active roster alongside Rich Hill, filling the void left by Lucas Giolito's season-ending elbow surgery and other pitching injuries this season. Sims' addition is part of a series of roster moves aimed at addressing the Red Sox's pitching struggles as they aim to stay competitive in the playoff race.
