Red Sox Unlikely To Deal Top Prospects For Garrett Crochet
1 month agoThe Boston Red Sox are unlikely to deal their top prospects in a trade for Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Garrett Crochet, according to Chris Cotillo and Sean McAdam of the Fenway Rundown Podcast. McAdam emphasized that the Red Sox are not interested in discussing any packages including outfielder Roman Anthony and potentially another member of the Big 4, which includes backstop Kyle Teel, shortstop Marcelo Mayer, and infielder/outfielder Kristian Campbell. However, McAdam noted that the Red Sox remain very interested in talks surrounding Crochet but would prefer to keep at least two of their top four prospects. Crochet was one of the top pitchers in fantasy baseball last season and held a strong 3.58 ERA, and a 1.07 WHIP with a stellar 35.1% strikeout rate across a career-high 146 innings of work.
