Roughed up by Astros Giolito (9-7) allowed seven earned runs on eight hits with five strikeouts and one walk across three innings to take the loss Thursday against the Astros.
Impact Giolito was hit hard throughout the outing. He surrendered a total of four extra-base hits and was tagged with at least seven earned runs in a start for the third time this season. Entering Thursday's appearance, Giolito had allowed more than three earned runs only once in his last four outings. Despite that solid stretch, Giolito has an ugly 5.34 ERA across 116.1 innings for the season.

Registers ninth win Giolito (9-6) earned the win over Detroit on Saturday, allowing four runs on eight hits and one walk while striking out seven batters over seven innings.
Impact Giolito fell behind early when he gave up three runs in the second frame. However, he rebounded to allow only one additional run the rest of the way and got enough run support to pick up the victory. Giolito was effective at missing bats with 17 swinging strikes, and he tied his season-high mark by completing seven innings. The right-hander has won each of his past three starts and has struck 19 batters over 17 innings during that span.

Gets job done in win Giolito (8-6) earned the victory Sunday in Texas, striking out five in five innings while allowing a run on six hits and three walks.
Impact It wasn't exactly his best outing but he managed to hold Texas to only one run despite allowing nine baserunners and needing 103 pitches to complete the five frames. He allowed the leadoff man to get on in three of the five innings and the Rangers recorded a hit in each inning, but Giolito always seemed to get a timely groundball to end the threats. The 28-year-old has pitched at least five innings in 11 of his last 12 outings but each outing continues to be a struggle and his 4.91 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and 18 homers allowed in 106.1 innings are a far cry from his output in the previous three seasons. His next start will likely be next weekend against Detroit.

Does enough to win Tuesday Giolito (7-6) allowed two runs on five hits and three walks with seven strikeouts over five innings, earning the win Tuesday over the Royals.
Impact The White Sox established an early lead and Giolito was able to make it stick. He had some trouble in the third inning, which resulted in him needing 94 pitches (64 strikes) to get through five frames. The right-hander hasn't pitched deeper than that in three starts since the All-Star break. He has a 5.06 ERA, 1.49 WHIP and 115:39 K:BB across 101.1 innings in 19 starts this year. Giolito is expected to start on the road against the Rangers this weekend.

Shaky control in no-decision Giolito didn't factor into the decision in Wednesday's 6-5 loss to the Rockies, giving up three runs on six hits and four walks over five innings. He struck out four.
Impact The right-hander hadn't issued more than two free passes in any of his prior six starts, but Giolito had trouble putting batters away in Coors Field, although he was at least able to limit the damage somewhat. His 12.6 percent swinging strike rate on the season is his worst mark since 2018, and more contact combined with a career-worst .349 BABIP has led to a 5.14 ERA and 1.48 WHIP. Even if Giolito's luck on balls in play gets better, it's hard to imagine he'll put together a true second-half turnaround without more whiffs.
