New Boston Red Sox starter Lucas Giolito could miss the entire 2024 season due to a partial tear in his elbow, ESPN’s Jeff Passan reported Tuesday.
Giolito, 29, was Boston’s biggest addition over the winter when he agreed to a two-year, $38.9-million contract with Boston in free agency. Now the Red Sox are preparing to play without a cornerstone of their rotation.
Giolito is an eight-year MLB veteran who spent most of his career with the Chicago White Sox. In 2023, split between the White Sox, Angels and Guardians, he made 33 starts and posted a 4.88 ERA with 204 strikeouts.
With Giolito out, the Red Sox will likely turn to free agents Blake Snell or Jordan Montgomery to fill the hole in their rotation.
The Red Sox finished last in the AL East in 2023 with a 78-84 record.
