View More NewsLucas Giolito fully recovered from elbow injury
Lucas Giolito said on Audacy’s “Baseball Isn’t Boring” podcast that he has fully recovered from the right elbow injury that sidelined him late last season. The right-hander began his offseason throwing program in mid-October and reported that his elbow felt “100 percent fine” just days after the initial soreness. Giolito missed the postseason for Boston but expects no lingering issues heading into free agency.
Fantasy Impact
Giolito’s clean bill of health should restore his standing as one of the more reliable veteran starters on the market. The 31-year-old posted a 3.41 ERA with a 121:56 K:BB across 145 innings for the Red Sox in 2025, and a healthy offseason should make him an attractive target for teams seeking mid-rotation stability. Assuming he lands in a favorable situation, Giolito profiles as a solid fantasy option in 2026 drafts.
