He surrendered one earned run over 7.2 innings of work and punched out seven. Success on the mound is nothing new for the Red Sox pitcher. He has a whopping 0.83 ERA over his last five starts. The starting pitcher was struggling before this hot streak. He is 5-1 this year with a 3.66 ERA. Will he continue pitching at such a high level?

Giolito debuted with the Washington Nationals in 2016. His career has included stints with the Chicago White Sox, Los Angeles Angels , and Cleveland Guardians. He made his lone All-Star appearance in 2019. The starting pitcher also has two top-1o finishes in AL Cy Young voting(2019, 2020). He missed the entirety of the 2024 season due to a UCL injury. Giolito signed a two-year $38.5 million contract with the Red Sox in January.

Final Thoughts

Giolito’s next scheduled start is on July 9 at home against the lowly Colorado Rockies. The starting pitcher will look to continue faring well for a Red Sox team looking to find its footing in the second half of the regular season.
