Garrett Crochet Makes Wild-Card Series Roster
Garrett Crochet impressed so much over his first five appearances out of relief (eight strikeouts, zero earned runs) that the club chose to add him to their wild-card series roster Tuesday against Oakland. Ranked as the club’s No. 4 prospect per MLB Pipeline, the 21-year-old Crochet could transition to the rotation in the years ahead, but his role in the postseason will come as a reliever. Having skipped the minors entirely after having been chosen 11th overall in the 2020 MLB draft, Crochet is a high-octane southpaw arm that the A’s, and potentially other clubs, will have to contend with throughout the playoffs.
