Giolito allowed two runs (one earned) on two hits and two walks while striking out one over two innings Wednesday against Texas.

EDGE Analysis

Giolito took his first spring outing in stride, understanding it's a process, so allowing two first-inning runs didn't phase him. He told Chris Kuc of the Chicago Tribune his curveball worked well but he was rushing a bit, particularly from the stretch. The 23-year-old right-hander had a nice seven-start run with the White Sox last season, but had a penchant for giving up long balls (eight HR in 45.1 IP).
