Giolito will start Game 2 of the ALDS against the Astros on Friday, Jesse Rogers of ESPN.com reports.

Giolito lasted at least five innings in each of his final three starts of the regular season, and he recorded a 1.10 ERA and 0.98 WHIP in 16.1 innings during that time. The right-hander will be on full rest in Friday's postseason start.
