flag Lucas Giolito, healthy after injury setbacks, exercised his option and enters free agency with interest in returning to the Red Sox.

flag Lucas Giolito, who posted a 3.41 ERA in 145 innings for the Red Sox in 2025 after recovering from UCL surgery, says he is now fully healthy following a late-season flexor irritation and bone issue that ended his playoff hopes. flag He exercised his $19 million player option, which converted to a mutual option with a $1.5 million buyout, allowing him to enter free agency without a qualifying offer. flag Giolito, who called 2025 his most enjoyable season, expressed strong interest in returning to Boston, where he remains a plausible fit given the team’s need for pitching depth. flag MLBTR ranks him as the 27th top free agent, projecting a two-year, $32 million deal with potential for a third year.
