Boston Red Sox pitcher Lucas Giolito is spending the offseason preparing for next year's Spring Training and recently opened up about the team's pitching additions this winter. The 30-year-old pitcher signed a one-year, $19 million contract with the Red Sox last year before he was ruled out for the entire season with an injury.
Speaking on Monday's edition of the "Baseball Isn't Boring" podcast, Lucas Giolito gave his take on their rotation for next year:
"Teams value prospects and draft picks at an extremely high level, probably higher than ever before in the history of baseball. Making trades involving top-level prospects is always a tough thing to do.
"Especially if it's prospects that were drafted by that GM and nurtured within the organization etc. Credit to Bres (Craig Breslow) on that one, just missed on Max and then immediate pivot, made a huge splash and then followed it up by signing Walker as well. I really like where our rotation's at."
