It wouldn't shock me in the least if he got traded for a hitter that is a reclamation project as well. Cool show me a 23 yr old hitter who you can call a reclamation project because you are just being crazy now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 This defense just isn't good this year. Our pitchers clearly suck this year, but the defense hasn't exactly bailed them out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Sox think he should start he should start. Easy. Not enough starting pitching depth now to send him to the minors. Well I suppose there's always Covey again or that other older guy they got in Charlotte, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking someone like the guy playing 3B for the Pirates tonight. might be 24 or 25, but Giolito will be 24 himself in July. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Parkman Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 Also interesting is Giolito is still one of 2 pitchers in the majors with a K/BB ratio less than 1. That is reserved for only the worst performing pitchers in the game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

credezcrew24 Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 The best part about Giolito is that we can criticize him without some idiot claiming racism. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems even Yolmer's errors have been badly timed and bad brainfarts from him, and I think we'd agree he's probably our best defender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SonofaRoache Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 Gio has been garbage in every start this season. A long way from people penciling him in as a sure fire #2. He needs to go back to the minors until he gets his mojo back. If he doesn't, then we pray someone else can step up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daggins Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 Gio is a lot like the guy who was just pitching against the Sox - a tall right handed former top prospect with control issues and trouble repeating his delivery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
