I have to imagine Giolito will be grabbed by a contender before he passes through waivers. He's only making $10m this year, so prorated this becomes less than $2m to get him for the final month.
Or not a contender. I’m sure these young men were thrilled to get out of SoCal and into a big market playing for the Tribe.
I’m kind of shocked we did it. Assume it’s more to protect our excellent young arms who have all thrown more innings than ever given our injury decimated staff. At 110 games, they might help you close 5 game gap, but that isn’t happening as we have tough schedule to finish and a few million is real money to us
