Man, what a wild ride for the Red Sox ace, Garrett Crochet! He hasn’t thrown a pitch since April 25, and nearly four months later, his return this season is *still* not guaranteed.
No Crochet? No Problem! (Mostly)
Losing arguably the best pitcher in Major League Baseball, like Crochet, was a massive blow back in April. Super concerning, right? But somehow, the Red Sox have absolutely found ways to win without the 27-year-old. It hasn’t been the disaster everyone expected.
Sonny Gray is the REAL MVP
Seriously, they owe everything to Sonny Gray. This veteran right-hander has been a beast, just as important as anyone else. Gray’s crushing it with a 15-3 record, a stellar 2.65 ERA, and 117 strikeouts in 132.2 innings. Sean McAdam nailed it: “And for that, the Red Sox can thank Sonny Gray.” He’s been just as good as anyone in baseball.
Even with Gray’s heroics, getting Crochet back is huge for this team come October. His return is still uncertain, but for a World Series run? They’re gonna need him, more than likely. This is far from over!
