Chapter 1: What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
What? What? No? Okay. I have to double confirm. Double sourcing that baby. There's nobody I'd rather talk to than Lucas Giglio.
You want to redo that bit? I coughed right in the middle of it.
It was a spit take. It's good because you challenged me. You challenged me to come up with new ones. Yeah. I don't know if you saw Michael Kopech turn the tables on me on the field right after the World Series.
No, I haven't been up on all the baseball isn't boring podcast content recently, actually. You've been doing a lot of postseason stuff?
Yeah, I was in Toronto. Nice. I was on the field. Immediately, the first person I interviewed on the field after... Drake. Believe me. No. When he left after game six, we came down. You know where the visiting clubhouse is, that area where the cards go out and everything? Mm-hmm. So he's coming down, and I could have just shoved the camera in his face, but no.
So I put the camera up like I was filming straight ahead, but I was actually filming behind me. And he was like a dot in the background. I said, I can confirm Drake was here tonight. That's funny. But when I went out after the game, after game seven, the first person I talked to, interviewed, was Tony Robbins. You know Tony Robbins, right?
Quick Google search away.
Oh, my God. Really?
Oh, the life coach guy. Yeah. I've seen him.

Chapter 2: What specific memories does Lucas Giolito have from his time in Boston?
I'd love to come back here and continue to play for the Red Sox. It's the most fun I've ever had having a season with a team in the big leagues. I feel like the way it ended left such a bad taste in my mouth and the rest of the team, particularly... me not being able to pitch in that playoff series, it really sucked.
And it's like, man, I really hope I can come back and it goes a little bit better for us next time. But it's got to be a mutual thing. And so going into... free agency, you know, for me, I'm not going into free agency hurt, but for front offices, they might view it that way. And I'm happy to prove that I'm fully healthy in any way possible.
Obviously I have, when you sign with a team, you have to pass a physical. So there you go.
Well, that's what we're here for. We're here to scream from the mountaintops. We're here to help your brand.
always so to go back to what what like could you have the way that you're talking it sounds like if you guys like made a run the postseason that you actually could have pitched is that a thing yeah i i was i was fully ready i think back on how the days were i went saw the doctor i came back uh
I went to the doctor. That was right before the series started. So I came back and started doing rehab work in New York. Within like three days, my elbow felt 100% fine again. So that was when I was like, yo, let's start a throwing program so I can build up and be ready to pitch again.
as soon as humanly possible, whether that be the end of the divisional series or the, if, you know, we made it that far, the championship series, like just let's start building up. But then we lost that game and the season's over. So that's that.
But it sounds like, again, not to come back to, but it sounds like that you could have, like you could have, if you, if you made it just feel like you could have pitched, like if it, I know that we're talking in hypotheticals, but I like dare to dream. So you could have pitched.
Yeah, but I didn't. And that's, that's the end. That's the end of the story.

Chapter 3: What is Lucas Giolito's offseason plan and training routine?
They don't get to where they got. They don't get to that spot without you. That's what should be understood.
that your present there's not a lot of pitchers that were like you in the american league like that is the fact that is what you should remember yes i'm bringing back bad memories from a couple days but so be it i want you like that that is a fact if i have to do the hype reel for lucas giolito for the front offices around baseball which i'll be happy to do it'll be easy to do because you had a great year and you you also got on track to have even better years
I appreciate that. It's true. I'm fully confident that next year or the year after are going to be better. Last year, I feel like there were some very good highs. Again, just being out there and giving the team an opportunity to win games, it was like, thank God I'm back to doing something like this. This is what I love to do. That's really what I... take away from it.
Being back out there, I felt like there was a lot of times where it was like, damn, I got to remember how this shit goes again. You know what I mean? A lot of ups and downs for me personally and the team as a whole, but overall really, really positive. I look forward to next year just continuing to build off of that. Get back to
Kind of get back to my ways of pitching, get the strikeout numbers back up and all the stuff that I know I'm good at that I kind of didn't have firing at the highest level last year just coming back. I look forward to kind of piecing all that stuff back together now that... I'm fully healthy.

Chapter 4: What are Lucas Giolito's thoughts on not receiving the qualifying offer?
I'm not grinding through anything anymore. I'm going to have a full, healthy off-season where I'm putting amazing... Again, shout out to Cressy Sports out here.
Yeah, boy, their brand has never been hotter. Oh, my God.
Yeah, it's a really great environment. I'm here... Yeah, there's other guys with the Red Sox here too that I'll be seeing on a daily basis.

Chapter 5: How did Lucas Giolito's 2025 season end and what were his injury concerns?
I'm not sure who else. I know Scherzer went there.
Verlander went there. Yeah.
I see my boy Nick Pavetta out here. Talking with him was one of the reasons I decided to make the move down here and train here because we both, again, let me do another shout out, Matt Uehara, our personal trainer back in Los Angeles. We have the same guy and Nick is able to do the program and everything and kind of put it together with
the whole umbrella of Cressy sports, the pitching side, the weightlifting side. It's really great.
Did you talk to Pavetta about what it's like to wait for a qualifying offer? I know I'm asking you that question. You're going to say, well, no, because I was going to get one. Cause I just remember like, that's what we, when, when it was coming up, like he was the guy that we were like, is he going to get one? We don't know all the way up until the last minute. Anyway.
I won't ask you about that. Yeah, no. I haven't talked to him about QO stuff at all because like you already inferred, I was already like, all right. You know what?
Did you feel that you – were you looking forward to getting a baseballs and boring tattoo? Did you feel like you were going to get a baseballs and boring tattoo, which is a very, very – insider way of saying, did you feel like you guys were going to win the world?
I still think I'm going to at some point.
Oh, I know you are. Yeah.

Chapter 6: What are Lucas Giolito's reflections on his performance and free agency?
Omakase umami here. And it's just a wonderful omakase sushi restaurant. And we went and they did the... They get an entire bluefin tuna. And it's like the tuna carving experience. And you're there for like three hours as they carve up the different cuts of tuna and create different dishes. And you do a shot of sake out of the... Out of the head of the tuna.
What?
Yeah, it's sick. That was awesome.
I could do a whole podcast on this fish eating experience. First of all, how much does something like that go for? Or do you get it comp because, you know?
No, no, no, no, no. You pay, you pay. Okay, all right. 300 a head maybe? Wow. 250 a head. Something like that. But it's a whole thing. Yes. It's like a three-hour thing. Really? Yeah. You get so much food. It was so much tuna and so much food that I felt disgusting for the next couple days, actually. And I was worried I'd turn into the Mad Hatter. What do you mean? I don't understand that.
You don't get that reference? Mercury poisoning.
Oh, okay. That's my line. I always like, cause yeah, I always, I carried around, I got mercury tested once and I had to carry around a gas tank full of urine.
Um, because what you get mercury tested. So you have to walk around with a bag of piss.
No, it was, it was, come on, don't over exaggerate.

Chapter 7: Could Lucas Giolito have pitched in the postseason if it continued?
Who is who do you come away from?
Sneaky. Such a good food city.
Oh, it's not even sneaky, is it?
Is it not? Is it not sneaky? Is it not considered like it's like, where's the best food? Where's the best food in America? Oh, L.A., New York, Chicago. Right. And yes, those three cities have fantastic food. I was blown away by how good the food was in Boston, especially the seafood.
Give me your top three places to eat in Boston.
I can't. Oh, my God, dude.
I'm trying to cut this clip so I get free food. Do you want to do it? You don't have to do it.
I don't think I can do it. I can't think of that.

Chapter 8: How does Lucas Giolito feel about the current state of the MLB playoffs?
I'm just trying to get a gauge for it.
Yeah, maybe less, maybe 20. Yeah, something like that.
The baseball's a boring holiday party. That's what we're going to do. All right. Anything else?
But you don't have to just go to – like you can just go and eat there. No, I know. And they have an omakase. They have like a 15-course omakase.
Yeah, but how can I not do the tuna thing? You're describing it. How can I not do it? It's impossible.
Do you like tuna? Like raw tuna?
Did you hear me when I told you that my love for seafood caused me to carry around a gas tank full of urine?
Oh, yeah. You legit – like tuna is what did you in. So when I did a blood test a number of years ago where they were like, wow, your mercury is kind of high. Like you should lay off sushi. I'm like, damn, bro. I have to lay off sushi? No way. That didn't last. Yeah. No, no.
So, all right. Well, we solved a lot of the world's problems. Absolutely. I hope you come on again. I won't bother you too much. You've got work to do. But I hope you come on. Maybe I'll come down there to see what's going on. Anytime. I may have a golf tournament to attend.
