Kutter Crawford News
Boston Red Sox right-hander Kutter Crawford allowed two runs on five hits and two walks while striking out six across six innings in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Atlanta Braves. He did not factor into the decision. Crawford pitched well most of the game and earned his fifth quality start of the season. His only mistake was surrendering a two-run blast to Jarred Kelenic in the bottom of the third inning. The 28-year-old was efficient on Tuesday, throwing 87 pitches and landing 58 for strikes. He owns a 1.75 ERA, 1.08 WHIP, and a 46:15 K: BB across 46 1/3 innings in 2024. Crawford has now posted a quality start in five of his last eight outings and will look to continue his strong season in his next start on Monday against the Tampa Bay Rays. Fantasy managers should continue to start Crawford in all league formats.
Boston Red Sox right-hander Kutter Crawford (1-0) allowed one run on three walks while striking out six over six innings in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates. He picked up his first win of the season. The 28-year-old was sharp in Saturday's victory, throwing 68 strikes on 100 pitches. He drew 17 swings and misses, which was a season-best. Crawford has yielded only one run or less over five starts this season. He owns a dazzling 0.68 ERA, 0.99 WHIP, and 30 strikeouts over 27 1/3 innings in 2024. Crawford will look to build on his strong start to the season in his next start on Friday against the Chicago Cubs.
Boston Red Sox right-hander Kutter Crawford will look to keep up the good work as he takes on the visiting Baltimore Orioles on Wednesday. The 28-year-old earned a rotation spot out of spring training and has worked 10 1/2 innings while allowing two runs (one earned) on just five hits with 12 strikeouts against four walks in that time. He went six scoreless frames in his season debut in Seattle on March 30 before going 4/2 innings with one run allowed at the Angels in his last start but his three walks elevated his pitch count early. Crawford posted a solid 4.04 ERA alongside a strong 18.8% K-BB% across 31 appearances (23 starts) with the Sox in the 2023 campaign. His fantasy value is certainly on the rise, especially if he can maintain big strikeout numbers as he did consistently in the minors.

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Kutter Crawford was a pleasant surprise in 2023, with a decent 4.04 ERA, 3.83 FIP, 1.11 WHIP, 25.5% strikeout rate, and 6.8% walk rate in 129 1/3 innings. His reliability as a back-end starter was a boon during a tumultuous 2023 for the Boston Red Sox, but advanced metrics, such as a 104 Pitching+ grade, 3.25 xERA, and .208 xBA, indicate Crawford could break out further in 2024. Defensive reinforcements in one of the league's worst defensive outfields (-20 DRS in 2023) combined with a lack of depth in Boston's starting rotation give the Florida Gulf Coast University product a good shot at sticking as a starting pitcher. The reliever-turned-starter's endurance is still a question mark (13.50 ERA in his third time through the batting order as a starting pitcher through 10 innings), but he has shown he can hold onto a rotation spot and produce consistently. Considering the upside and his lack of a track record, a 275.9 ADP is a reasonable spot to draft the 27-year-old.
