Giolito, who came up in the Nationals' farm system before being traded to the White Sox a few months after his MLB debut in 2016, started to finally reach his potential as one of the game's prospects in 2019.
Following a rough 2018 season, in which Giolito went 10-13 with a 6.13 ERA, the righty had a career year. He went 14-9 over 29 starts, posting a 3.41 ERA with 228 strikeouts and a 1.064 WHIP in 176 2/3 innings pitched. He ranked in the top five in the AL in ERA (fifth), WHIP (fourth), hits per nine innings (third), and strikeouts per nine innings (third) while posting league highs in complete games (three) and shutouts (two) pitched that season.
