Elbow inflammation halts Giolito's bid for rotation stability
Lucas Giolito’s season has hit another significant roadblock after being placed on the 15-day injured list on June 22 with right elbow inflammation. This news follows a difficult stretch where he posted a 9.00 ERA and a 2.25 WHIP in his most recent four-inning outing. The second-place Padres currently hold a 42-37 record and are riding a three-game winning streak, but they will be forced to navigate a difficult divisional stretch without the veteran’s services.
Under the hood, the metrics suggest that the elbow issue likely contributed to his recent struggles on the mound. Over the last 30 days, Giolito has labored to a 6.56 ERA while walking 15 batters in just under 20 innings of work. This is a significant regression from our model's projected 4.36 ERA and his 2025 form where he remained a steady mid-rotation presence. Until his command returns to his career norms, he remains a volatile fantasy asset.
Looking at the remaining schedule, San Diego hosts the first-place Dodgers for a high-stakes weekend series through June 28. Giolito will miss these crucial matchups against elite arms like Yoshinobu Yamamoto while recovering on the sidelines. Since he is ineligible to return until early July, he will provide zero fantasy value for the current scoring period, and he is a clear Sit in all formats.
