It's not really that crazy an ideas when considering his arbitration # is probably coming in at $12 million based on scale. Maybe $12 million are better used elsewhere since the team all of a sudden is flooded with holes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get doing that if you are good enough to pitch over it, Giolito has not been that Yeah that works a lot better with Cease, Kopech or even Cueto pitch-ability.

Or $13 million if he hits his PA incentives correctly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Friend of Nordhagen Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 Fuck off, Vaughn. Seriously. That was 85-90% going to be a ground ball to the left side of the infield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So has his fastball velocity, WHIP, inability to be effective with curve balls or sliders, etc. What is your solution? Not to trade him in the offseason at his lowest value given that next year is a contract year and he will be really motivated to bounce back.

Roy Hobbs was away from baseball for like 16 years. When you've got it, you've got it. Unleash Oscar!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Parkman Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 Giolito is a salary dump at this point, so if they want to get out of his last arb year, a non-tender is probably the best option. Keeping him is making the Kimbrel mistake again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brijames1957 Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 The next 7 games, 3 at Clev, 1 at KC, and 3 at Balt will tell us if the Sox are done or not. They only have 6 games left against Clev so 2 of 3 this weekend is almost a must. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 (edited) The Indians and Orioles might put them out of their misery pretty quickly. Went from looking like a first place tie was possible until the 8th inning in both CLE and Chicago to this. Not shocking or surprising to most observers, of course.
