White Sox ace Lucas Giolito placed on COVID-19 list

Chicago White Sox ace right-hander Lucas Giolitio was placed on the COVID-19 list prior to Friday's game against the New York Yankees.

Giolito wasn't slated to face the Yankees this weekend. He last pitched Tuesday when he gave up one run and six hits over seven innings in a victory over the Cleveland Guardians.

The 27-year-old Giolito experienced symptoms earlier this week.

Giolito is 2-1 with a 2.70 ERA in five start
