Lucas Giolito
MLB Pitcher
The 3rd largest change in ERA from one season to the next after BrainKanix
Lucas approached us seeking help with his consistent struggles in pitching beyond the first or second inning of games. Even minor setbacks, such as a few runners getting on base or an umpire's unfavorable call, caused him to overthink and feel anxious, leading to a complete breakdown of his performance. This pattern was not reflective of his caliber as a player and was taking a toll on his career. In 2018, he finished with the highest ERA, most runs allowed, and most walks, among other categories you don’t want to lead the league in as a starting pitcher.
After working with us during the 2019 offseason for two weeks, he experienced a significant turnaround in his career. He emerged as an all-star and a Cy Young Award finalist, achieving the third-largest change in ERA from one season to the next. The change was most evident in a game where Lucas initially gave up three runs in the first inning but regrouped and pitched seven consecutive no-run innings.
