Julio Cesar Lugo (November 16, 1975 – November 15, 2021) was a Dominican professional baseball shortstop.
He played 12 seasons in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the Houston Astros, Tampa Bay Devil Rays, Los Angeles Dodgers, Boston Red Sox, St. Louis Cardinals, Baltimore Orioles, and Atlanta Braves.

In addition to playing baseball for Fort Hamilton, he played in the Youth Service League in Brooklyn; alumni of that program include Manny Ramírez and Shawon Dunston.
He went on to play college baseball at Connors State College in Oklahoma.
The Houston Astros selected Lugo in the 43rd round of the 1994 MLB draft, although he did not sign with the team until May 1995.
He made his professional debut in 1995 with the Auburn Astros, a Class A Short Season team in the New York–Penn League; appearing in 59 games, he had a .291 batting average with one home run and 16 runs batted in (RBIs).
He advanced through the Houston farm system, reaching the Triple-A level in 2000 with the New Orleans Zephyrs.

Lugo played in 116 games for the Astros that year, batting .283 with 10 home runs and 40 RBIs.
He made appearances at shortstop, second base, all three outfield positions, and designated hitter.
In 2001, Lugo played in 140 games, batting .263 with 10 home runs and 37 RBIs.
The following season, he batted .261 with eight home runs and 35 RBIs in 88 games.
He appeared in one postseason series with Houston, the 2001 National League Division Series, batting 0-for-8 in three games.
In mid-August, Lugo's left arm was broken when he was hit by a pitch from Kerry Wood of the Chicago Cubs, ending his 2002 season.
Since 1996, only Greg Vaughn—who had a .163 average with Tampa Bay on June 27, 2002—had a lower batting average with more than 250 at bats 80 games into a season.
After the first week of July, Lugo turned his hitting performance around, compiling a 14-game hitting streak on July 25.
He was 24-for-54 (.444) during the career-best streak, raising his average from .189 to .226.
On April 30, 2003, Lugo was arrested after a game at Minute Maid Park and charged with assaulting his wife.
He was designated for assignment and subsequently released by the Astros.
Lugo had appeared with 22 games that season with Houston.
Overall, Lugo appeared in 366 games for the Astros, batting .268 with 28 home runs and 114 RBIs.
In mid-May 2003, Lugo signed with the Tampa Bay Devil Rays.
In mid-July, he was acquitted of the assault charges after his then-wife (the couple had filed for divorce) testified that she had instigated the incident and he did not intend to hurt her.
Lugo appeared in 117 games with the Rays through the end of the season, batting .275 with 15 home runs and 53 RBIs.
He hit home runs in four consecutive games against the Toronto Blue Jays during September 22–25.
In 2004, Lugo batted .275 with seven home runs and 75 RBIs in 157 games.
The following season, he played 158 games while batting .295 with six home runs and 57 RBIs.
Lugo spent the first half of 2006 with the Devil Rays, playing in 73 games with 12 home runs, 27 RBIs, and a .308 average.
Two of his home runs came in a single inning, the fifth, of a home game against the Baltimore Orioles on July 22.
Overall with Tampa Bay in parts of four seasons, Lugo had a .287 average with 40 home runs and 212 RBIs in 505 games.
Lugo was traded at the 2006 trade deadline to the Los Angeles Dodgers for infielder Joel Guzmán and minor-league outfielder Sergio Pedroza.
He appeared in 49 games with the Dodgers through the end of the regular season, batting .219 with no home runs and 10 RBIs.
In the 2006 National League Division Series, Lugo batted 1-for-4 in two games as the Dodgers lost to the New York Mets.
At the end of October, he became a free agent.
On December 5, 2006, Lugo signed a four-year, $36 million contract with the Boston Red Sox.
Lugo was brought on to bat leadoff, but was moved by manager Terry Francona to the bottom part of the order primarily due to his inability to consistently get on base.
During the 2007 season, from June 15 through July 2, inclusive, Lugo went 0–31 at the plate.
At that time, Lugo had a .189 batting average.
