Lucas Giolito, a former pitcher for the Boston Red Sox, is still without a team as the MLB season progresses, despite having a commendable 3.41 ERA and a 10-4 record in 2025. His extended free agency is largely attributed to concerns surrounding a previous injury that placed him on the injured list for flexor irritation. Giolito, now 31 years old, expressed his desire for a contract that reflects his market value, which is estimated at $20.4 million per season. He is aiming for a three-year deal totaling $61.3 million. In a recent podcast interview, he described the free agency process as 'strange,' noting that discussions often seem promising only to stall unexpectedly. Despite his current situation, Giolito is willing to pitch in Triple-A as he waits for an opportunity in the majors, with teams like the Houston Astros potentially in need of his skills due to injuries in their starting rotation.
