Garrett Crochet 2026 Fantasy Baseball Outlook: Nudging into First Round After Illustrating Health
Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Garrett Crochet dazzled in his first season with more than 200 innings, which led to a second-place AL Cy Young Award finish. He led all of baseball with 255 strikeouts with a 2.59 ERA and 1.03 WHIP over 205 ⅓ IP before an 11-strikeout pitching clinic against the Yankees in the playoffs. His ERA dropped by a full run versus his 2024 White Sox season, though his mid-2's FIP/xFIP/SIERA in '24 held steady in '25, only now the surface stat mirrored the sabermetrics. The southpaw's walk rate held firm under 6%, and though Fenway Park led to a few more homers, the 3.02 home ERA was still solid (2.25 away). You'll accept the venue given that the run support and bullpen led to an 18-5 record. Perhaps the W/L variance regresses a bit in '26, yet the strikeout boost with plus ratios is worth eyeing near his 12 ADP at the end of the first round, according to the RotoBaller ranks.
