Lucas Giolito Making Season Debut With Padres on Sunday
San Diego Padres starting pitcher Lucas Giolito has been recalled to make his season debut against the Seattle Mariners on Sunday. After making four minor league starts, Giolito is ready for big league action. He built up to 74 pitches during his final rehab start with Double-A San Antonio. With that being said, Giolito shouldn't have much of a workload restriction during his first big league start this year. Last season, Giolito posted a 3.41 ERA, 1.29 WHIP, and a 121:56 K:BB ratio across 145.0 innings with the Boston Red Sox. The right-hander should offer at least deep league value. In a corresponding move, right-hander Alek Jacob has been optioned to Triple-A El Paso to clear a roster spot for Giolito.
