News about Lucas Giolito

The Los Angeles Angels appear to be waiving the white flag on their season, one month after opting to keep Shohei Ohtani at the trade deadline. As reported by ESPN, the club called starter Lucas Giolito, relievers Matt Moore and Reynaldo López, and outfielders Hunter Renfroe and Randal Grichuk on waivers, allowing more competitive teams to pick up their heft contracts en route to the playoffs. The last Wild Card spot in the American League was a game out of the day 11.5 games. Ohtani sustained a UCL tear in his right elbow early this week, putting his season on the track and putting his future as an ace pitcher into question. Ohtani will be a free agent after the season, but he remains baseball's best slugger with 44 home runs on the season.

The Los Angeles Angels aren't giving up Shohei Ohtani and instead opting for a playoff push ahead of the August 1 trade deadline. Lucas Giolito and Reynaldo López of the Chicago White Sox were recalled by the Angels on Wednesday night, indicating their determination to fight for a playoff spot with Ohtani. The Angels traded two of their top minor league prospects, left-hander Ky Bush, and catcher Edgar Quero, to the White Sox, who saw a strong return for two young veteran pitchers in their last season before the unrestricted free agency. The Los Angeles Kings reported the arrangement just after Sports Illustrated cited an unidentified source in a revealing that the Angels did not trade Ohtani, the 2021 AL MVP. This winter, Ohtani will be an unrestricted free agent, but the Angels are obviously pulling out all the stops to qualify for their first playoff appearance in the two-way superstar's six major league seasons.

Tim Anderson was fired from second and third on a game-ending flyout, and the New York Mets defeated the Chicago White Sox 11-10 on Tuesday night after taking a seven-run lead behind two Francisco lvarez home runs. As the Mets took a 5-0 lead in their first inning this season, lvarez and fellow rookie Brett Baty scored back-to-back home runs off Lucas Giolito (6-6). In his third multi-homer game off Tanner Banks, lvarez added another two-run homer to his third multi-homer game, putting the Mets ahead 11-4. "I do know this: He's not afraid of the moment," Mets manager Buck Showalter said. "It's rare."

As New York's air quality index reaches a 185 rating due to smoke overtaking the sky as a result of Canadian wildfires, the Yankees took the field in potentially volatile weather.

The Bronx was no exception, as the sky over Yankee Stadium glowed a mix of orange and dark grey.

After playing for years in Japan, Masataka Yoshida has already made some mechanical improvements at the plate during his rookie season with the Boston Red Sox. They certainly paid the bill on Sunday. Boston roared to beat the Milwaukee Brewers 12-5 after Yoshida homered twice during Boston's nine-run outburst in the eighth inning. Since Hall of Fame slugger David Ortiz's debut in August 2008, he became the first Red Sox player to go deep in a single inning.

Writing on Instagram, Farmer said: 'Thank you to everyone who has reached out! Thankful that nothing has been broken, but that the wounds are still swollen. I can't wait to get back out there with the guys and win some more games!' Farmer Kyle Winty needed surgery to have his teeth fixed, but he managed to recover without a fractured jaw after being knocked to the ground by a 92 mph fastball that drove away from Chicago White Sox pitcher Lucas Giolito in the fourth inning of Minnesota's victory on Wednesday.

Kyle Farmer of Minnesota had to have his teeth realigned in surgery to also suture together lacerations on his lower lip after being struck by a 92 mph fastball while the Twins played the White Sox on Wednesday.

Kyle Farmer, the Minnesota Twins' shortstop, made a 92-mph pitch to the side on Wednesday before stepping off the field under his own authority. Lucas Giolito, a 32-year-old journeyman infielder, was struck below his helmet's pitching, and the immediate reaction was covered up in fear. 'Goodness gracious,' said White Sox announcer Steve Stone. 'Oh no.' Rocco Baldelli, the Twins' manager, and members of Minnesota's training staff were rushed out to Farmer right away.
