San Diego Padres at Seattle Mariners by Tony T. Game Summary Seattle gets a major starting-pitching edge with Kirby, who owns a strong WHIP, low home-run rate and solid FIP. San Diego's offense will need to pressure him early and avoid falling behind in counts. The Pick Seattle is batting .231 with a .381 slugging percentage. Padres' bullpen in great recent form and figures to see plenty of action as Giolito makes his 2026 debut and missed the spring. Padres are 14-8 on the road with a +6.8-unit return. Seattle is 12-13 at home with a -7-unit loss. Play San Diego +140.

San Diego Padres at Seattle Mariners — 7:15 PM ET by Tony T. Lucas Giolito starts for San Diego. Giolito is a right-handed pitcher that had 26 starts in 2025 with an ERA of 3.41 and WHIP of 1.29. The right hander struck out 19.7% with 9.1% walks. Ground balls were 37.8% with 1.06 home runs per nine innings. He was a late signee and missed spring training. In 18 low minor league starts he allowed nine earned runs in 17 innings.

Ben & Woods begin the 7am hour with today's MLB Reacharound as we go over some of the top headlines from around Major League Baseball yesterday. Then we get to "Don't (And DO) Do This" before the guys talk about some reporting from Kevin Acee that Lucas Giolito is expected to join the Padres this weekend and make his first start of the season up in Seattle. Listen here!

The Padres dropped their first series in a long time, and the wait continues for Fernando Tatis Jr.'s breakout. How are the Padres getting it done despite slow starts from most of their stars? And what on earth will it take for Tatis to get going? How does this slump compare to the rough patch he had in 2025? What will the rotation look like in a week or two ? With Canning and Giolito on the way, who will be left on the outside? Plus, this bench is legit.

The 2026 MLB season continues to deliver major news! Right-hander Lucas Giolito has signed with the San Diego Padres on a 1-year/$3 million deal that can reach up to $8 million with incentives, plus a mutual option for 2027. In a shocking move, the Boston Red Sox have fired manager Alex Cora, hitting coach Peter Fatse, assistant hitting coach Dillon Lawson, bench coach Ramon Vázquez, and game planning coach Jason Varitek. Chad Tracy has been named interim manager as the Red Sox look to turn their season around. Week in Review Highlights: Zack Wheeler made a strong return to the mound (5 IP, 3 H, 2 ER, 3 BB, 6 K vs. Braves). Highly touted prospect JR Ritchie earned his first MLB win in his debut, tossing 7 strong innings (5 H, 2 ER, 2 BB, 7 K) against the Nationals. The Phillies released veteran starter Taijuan Walker. Cubs acquire infielder Nicky Lopez from the Rockies and bring back Vince Velasquez (his first MLB appearance since 2023). Top prospect Trey Yesavage is back and scheduled to pitch on Tuesday. Injury Updates: Raisel Iglesias – Shoulder inflammation Daniel Palencia – Lat strain (could return soon) J.T. Realmuto – Lower back injury Francisco Lindor – Calf injury (expected to miss “quite a bit of time”); Mets call up Ronny Mauricio Eugenio Suárez – Oblique strain We break down all the biggest stories, the impact of the Red Sox coaching purge, Giolito's fit in San Diego, and early season roster moves.

When the Chicago Cubs made some big moves this past offseason, the hope was to get the club back to its winning ways after a few disappointing seasons. Bringing in veteran Alex Bregman and star pitcher Edward Cabrera were just a few signs of that commitment, and so far this season, it's paying off for fans in the Windy City. On this episode of the Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman talk about what the Cubs are doing so well during their nine-game winning streak, which has them sitting atop the NL Central and ready for a big matchup against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Even though their pitching staff has been depleted due to injuries, the Cubbies are ready to make some noise in the National League and make a statement in Los Angeles this weekend. Later, Jake and Jordan discuss the Atlanta Braves impressing this season in all facets of the game with their MLB-best 18–8 record, and how manager Walter Weiss set the tone early for this team to fight until the end of every game. They then get into the San Diego Padres signing Lucas Giolito, the New York Mets finally snapping their 12-game losing streak and make their picks for this week's edition of The Good, The Bad & The Uggla. 1:11 - The Opener: Cubs stay hot 19:00 - Field Report: Braves success in 2026 29:30 - Around the League: Padres sign Giolito 37:36 - Mets snap losing streak 44:35 - The Good 51:50 - The Bad 58:22 - The Uggla Subscribe to Baseball Bar-B-Cast on your favorite podcast app:

The Mets offseason is at a tipping point, and Kyle Tucker is the one move that could change the entire mood. Evan and Tiki debate why Tucker would “save” the winter, why the Mets' only real edge is money, and how David Stearns' short-term, high-AAV philosophy is shaping everything after losing Pete Alonso. Then it turns into a wild New York sports morning: John Harbaugh meets with the Giants, fans call in on Tucker vs pitching help (Suarez, Valdez, Giolito), and the guys hit the Yankees' under-the-radar Ryan Weathers trade before circling back to the big question: who's the Mets ace right now?

Hey Sox fans! We're living in a Bears dominated world but we try to scratch out a little White Sox chatter in the middle of January. Sox pick up Jarred Kelenic and Sean Nowcomb but things have been very quite for the Sox since the Murakami deal. Why not be more aggressive? There are some names out there that could fit in with where the Sox are heading but do you want to see a reunion with Moncada or Giolito? SoxFest is coming up in a few weeks? What questions do you have for upper management? Thank you for the continued support. Go Sox. #WhiteSox

Giolito detailed his plan for this offseason, while reflecting on some very specific memories during his time in Boston. There is, of course, plenty of movie and TV talk, as well.

From 'Play Tessie' (subscribe here): Gordo, Sammy, and Pat are officially ready for the offseason with the first big move being a non-move. Is Lucas Giolito's time in Boston near its end with the Red Sox not offering him the qualifying offer? Also, the approach for the Sox when it comes to their rotation will be different from last offseason, but aggressiveness should still be expected. And, how much is the looming lockout in 2027 gonna factor into the moves made and the deals signed?

Firstly, let's get one this straight - Cam Schlittler is illiterate. He can not read, he can not write, and he can not stop getting cooked by fans. That's right folks, Cam Schlitter used AI to write an apology to the city he was raised in. It's a very common thing for absolute clowns to do. Lucas Giolito and the Boston Red Sox are in agreement on declining their mutual option. The Boston Red Sox did not extend Giolito a qualifying offer. It's a shame, he would have been such a wonderful 60-day IL. Trevor Story, on the other hand, opts in to the remaining two years of his deal. We're happy about it. The off-season started by needing all four infield positions filled, now you only need three. We will welcome Trevor Story with open arms! At second base! Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Craig Breslow joins the show ahead of the Red Sox first playoff game. He gives an update on Giolito before the game.

The weekend crew is back to recap a lackluster series for the Boston Red Sox, who dropped two of three to the Pittsburgh Pirates.However, Payton Tolle dazzled in his big-league debut, and Lucas Giolito gutted his way through six innings of one-run ball in the finale. Unfortunately, everything in between Tolle and Giolito was atrocious.Jarren Duran hit his first inside-the-park home run of his career on Sunday, catapulting the Red Sox in front, where they stayed until the final out.The team also extended All-Star closer Aroldis Chapman through at least the 2026 season, while also releasing veteran right-hander Walker Buehler.Make sure to follow us on Twitter, @ThePeskyReport.

And, Alex Cora gave a rather odd answer for keeping in Giolito seemingly longer than he should while David Hamilton might need to go back to bunting basics.

What can the Red Sox improve to go on a run this season? Bullpen? Starting pitching? The Sox need to ensure that this run lasts longer than just a series or two. Giolito discussion.

You cannot trade your surplus of outfielders just because, but they also have to play. Jones started to notice that the front office is giving the same answer over and over, are they staying “aligned?”

Mayer is staying, but Roman needs some more time. He cannot hit off-speed pitches. They pivot to Drake Maye. Is the pressure on the second year QB?
