The Chicago White Sox have seen Lucas Giolito come a long way.

Prior to 2018, Chicago White Sox ace Lucas Giolito knew nothing but success as a pitcher in his life. He was a potential number one overall pick before he blew his elbow out and needed Tommy John surgery. That made him fall in the draft but eventually, the Washington Nationals used one of their selections on him.
