Lucas Giolito is set to make his MLB return in 2025 despite struggling in rehab, with a high ERA and numerous walks. His call-up is believed to be influenced by contract strategy. Other Red Sox veterans are also facing challenges, notably Rafael Devers, who is hitting poorly as a newly full-time DH. Meanwhile, Jarren Duran made headlines by becoming the first Sox player since 2002 to achieve significant offensive milestones in a game. Additionally, manager Alex Cora has made history by reaching the 1,000-game milestone with the team.
He hasn't exactly sparkled in five rehab starts, walking 31 hitters and finishing with an ERA over 5, but Lucas Giolito is ready to make his 2025 MLB debut nonetheless.
Though he homered yesterday, Rafael Devers entered the weekend series hitting under the Mendoza line.
Duran became the first Sox player since Johnny Damon in 2002 to collect a triple, two RBIs, and three runs in the same game.
Alex Cora became the fifth person in history to manage 1,000 games for the Red Sox.
