Lucas Giolito injury update: White Sox pitcher to miss rest of season with lat strain image

Lucas Giolito won't pitch again in 2019.

The White Sox announced Monday that an MRI revealed the pitcher has a strained lat and will miss the remainder of the season.

There are no "long-term concerns" with the injury, the team said in a press release.

Chicago is far from the playoff picture at 65-85 and sits in third in the American League Central. But Giolito has had a great season.

The 25-year-old made his first All-Star team in 2019 and recorded a 14-9 record with a 3.41 ERA.
