    Chicago White Sox - Lucas Giolito #27 is an autofade as a starter

    One of the worst pitchers in the majors, truly a wonder he is still on the chisox starting rotation.
    Atrocious stats and I've watched him pitch, and he is quite unimpressive.
    Fade this guy with confidence.
    You have been warned.

    a little too late to jump in betting against this guy. he will soon be out of the rotation anyway even for that team. more walks that strikeouts good indicator. he's been wild and losing since his first start in march. been playing against him since early april.

    This kid has made a very nice comeback. He is no longer a horrid pitcher.

    Bad fade these days IMO

    Yep have to be careful with prospects they can be gas cans for a while but the real danger is assuming they will stay that way.

    Almost always takes pitchers longer to figure it out at the big league level.

    Yeah I stopped fading him a few weeks back. He has looked very good.

    Having said that I'm taking the OVER 8.5 in the Chisox vs Tigers game tonight.

    Giolito lasted 1 & 1/3 innings before getting the hook.

    Yeah one of the most improved pitchers and quite the turnaround from a year ago.

    Well done.

    He could win the Cy Young this year. He is unhittable.

    Stopped throwing sinkers and is throwing a filthy changeup.

    Works wonders.

    Giolito has blossomed into a nice pitcher thus far
