EDGE Analysis

Giolito is ready for his Grapefruit League debut after throwing a two-inning live batting practice session at Fenway South on Thursday. He's fallen behind other rotation candidates while he completed his recovery from an internal brace procedure in March 2024, but Boston manager Alex Cora expects Giolito to be ready for the start of the regular season.
