Timeline
Joshua William Lueke (born December 5, 1984) is an American former professional baseball relief pitcher.
He played in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the Seattle Mariners and Tampa Bay Rays, and in Nippon Professional Baseball (NPB) for the Tokyo Yakult Swallows.
His impending retirement from professional baseball was announced prior to the upcoming 2022-2023 winter season of the Mexican Pacific League.
Lueke was drafted by the Texas Rangers in the 16th round of the 2007 Major League Baseball Draft.
He played for the Spokane Indians, Clinton LumberKings, and Bakersfield Blaze.
While in the Rangers organization Lueke was arrested following a May 2008 incident and charged with having committed rape and non-consensual sodomy.
During the investigation Lueke lied to the police by denying he had sexual contact with the victim (an assertion proven false by DNA testing), and he pleaded no contest to lesser charges of false imprisonment with violence and was sentenced to 42 days in jail, time served prior to making bail.
An additional 20 days were discounted due to good behavior and Lueke received three years of felony probation.
Adair had been the Rangers minor league pitching coordinator in 2008, when Lueke was charged.
After the July 9, 2010 trade that sent Lueke to the Seattle Mariners, team president Chuck Armstrong denied having any knowledge of Lueke's criminal past, and stated if he had known, he would have stopped the deal with Texas.
Up to that point, the Mariners organization had a long history of supporting groups who oppose violence against women, running a campaign called "Refuse to Abuse" and had previously suspended and traded reliever Julio Mateo, who was accused of beating his wife.
After an interview with Lueke, Mariners GM Jack Zduriencik reported that he was "satisfied with the interview and it's an issue that's behind us."
Former Mariners pitching coach Rick Adair later told reporters that he had informed Zduriencik of Lueke's legal troubles, and that Rangers GM Jon Daniels had made a standing offer to take Lueke back on the night of the trade.
On April 3, 2011, he made his Major League debut for the Mariners against the Oakland Athletics.
He threw two-thirds of an inning giving up four runs on two hits.
