Chicago White Sox Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Hopefully his recent poor performance was related to the bad tooth and he can now finally start swinging at borderline pitches. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 God he sucks. 6.41 ERA after mid-August. Cooper is doing a wonderful job with the young guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Typical Giolito inning. 30+ pitches. Two nice strikeouts. Flashes some really good stuff (recently) but no consistency from batter to batter. Can’t get that final out in the inning. Hit batters, wild pitches, complete inability to hold runners successfully.

Jack Parkman Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 That was just a good piece of hitting by Martinez, and the game is tied on the next pitch with a hanging slider. Sigh. I understand why you guys think he's a mental midget. On the plus side, Gio did strike out the side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 I do like the emotion Gio showed there. But when his command leaves him, he is meat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good point, he just do so many things poorly on the mound that it's really hard to see him turning it around. Inconsistent mechanics, bad pitching from the stretch, inability to hold runners and general lack of spin rate. He's still living off his prospect ranking from a few years ago.

That is the thing that concerns me. There doesn’t seem to be any rhyme or reason when he is about to fall apart. It just happens. It isn’t because he is tired or anything like that. He just comes apart. He also gets back together again on occasion, but it just seems like at some point every game, with very few exceptions, he is going to look like an A ball pitcher.
