The once-coveted pitching prospect came over from the Athletics in the Starling Marte trade. Luzardo, who’d already struggled to the tune of a 6.87 ERA and 6.09 FIP through the first 4 months of the 2021 season, continued along the same path of poor pitching. He posted a 6.44 ERA over 57 1⁄3 innings in Miami, averaging less than 5 innings over his 12 starts.
