BREAKING: Right-hander Lucas Giolito and the Boston Red Sox are in agreement on a two-year, $38.5 million contract that includes an opt-out after the first season, sources tell ESPN.
Boston lands its first big signing of the winter. The question now is: Will there be more?

Finally something gets done!
#3 type SP. probably better than what we have but hardly a real difference make. better than nothing thoughOriginally Posted by Jasonbay44
He was absolutely horrendous with the Angels and Guardians, so hopefully we don’t get that version of him…
Good signing.
Ok. Finally.
Not my top choice but certainly has potential.
Plus Bellhorn has promised to puke if this happens…
He’s a difference maker over Jacque Jones Opener starts…
I hope this isn’t going to be Breslow’s marquee signing.
The King of TalkSox has Spoken.
Bloom just texted Brez: "Make sure you thank me at Winter Weekend -- if I re-signed Eovaldi or Wacha, you wouldn't have been able to nab the AL leader in home runs allowed!"
if he doesn't, i will. ida rather had Wacha over this guy. at least the fans will get to see lots of home runs when he pitches. won't help us, but it will be exciting for the fans.
I shall not vomit, but it's definitely a reclamation project.
Championships since purchase by John Henry group: Red Sox 4 Yankees 1
The Red Sox are 8-1 in their last 9 postseason games against the Yankees.
The contract predictions for Lucas Giolito were all over the place.
MLB Trade Rumors had Giolito at two years, $44 million; The Athletic two years, $24 million with opt out after first year; FanGraphs columnist Ben Clemens four years, $60 million; and FanGraphs crowdsource two years, $30 million.
The Red Sox did OK.
I assumed he was pitching through injury last year; otherwise, why would he suddenly suck after three seasons of Cy Young votes?
But I just checked bb-ref and found: '23 ERA 4.88 ... and '22 ERA 4.90.
Not even the Red Sox' vaunted offense the past two years scored enough runs per game to overcome those numbers.
You have officially let me down. Can you at least give me a vomit emoji? I will consider that act keeping you true to your word…
