Garrett Crochet Fantasy Stats

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Garrett Crochet had an uncharacteristically rough outing on Monday night, allowing 10 runs on nine hits and three walks, while recording only five outs against the Twins. His velocity was down, and he allowed home runs to Victor Caratini and Ryan Kreidler in one of the worst statistical starts of his career. The Red Sox and their ace did not indicate they had any injury concerns coming out of the game, but it was an alarmingly bad showing that will take some time for his ERA to recover from. While it's definitely not the time to panic about Crochet just yet, his next outing will be an important one for him to prove this was just a blip and not a trend. His next start lines up for Sunday afternoon at home against the Tigers.

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Garrett Crochet was one of the first pitchers off the board in most fantasy baseball drafts, and so far this season, he has looked every bit the ace managers were hoping for. In his three starts, Crochet is 2-1 with a 3.12 ERA, 2.60 FIP, and 22 strikeouts in 17 1/3 innings. He started the year with six shutout innings in a win over the Reds, got touched up a bit in Houston, but then settled back in to help the Red Sox beat the Brew Crew on Thursday with 6 1/3 strong innings. He has at least seven strikeouts in each start, and is performing like a top-of-the-rotation arm through his first three starts. He'll face the Twins on Monday in Minnesota and would seem to be lined up for a two-start week next week. He's one of the most reliable starting pitchers available and can continue to anchor your rotation in fantasy baseball.

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Garrett Crochet can be a first-round pick in almost all fantasy baseball formats, and is the No. 10 overall player in RotoBaller's rankings coming into the year. He's the second-highest starting pitcher on the board behind only Tarik Skubal. Crochet put up dazzling numbers last year with a 2.59 ERA, 2.89 FIP, and 1.03 WHIP over 205 1/3 IP in 32 starts. It was his second straight season with 32 starts, and he set a new career-high in innings and strikeouts. He also looked strong in the postseason with an 11-strikeout outing against the Yankees. While pitching his home games at Fenway Park did lead to a few more homers, he continued to limit damage by holding opponents to a .216 batting average and allowing a career-low 37.3% hard-hit rate. Crochet will look to build on that success in 2026 and can serve as the ace of your fantasy staff, just like he will for the Red Sox this year.

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Garrett Crochet replaced his changeup with a splitter during the offseason, according to Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic. Crochet reportedly used informative videos from pitching coach Andrew Bailey and coach Devin Rose to experiment and ultimately implement the new pitch while working out at Vanderbilt University during the offseason. Crochet only threw his changeup 4% of the time last year, but it produced an impressive .080 wOBA and 42.1% whiff rate. In comparison to the changeup, we'd expected his splitter to have an even lower spin rate, and perhaps additional drop (lower induced vertical break). Crochet posted a spectacular 2.64 xFIP during his first season in Boston last year, and he ranks as RotoBaller's #2 starter heading into 2026 fantasy baseball drafts.

In his first season with the Boston Red Sox in 2025, left-handed pitcher Garrett Crochet emerged as one of the best pitchers in MLB. Across 205 1/3 innings (32 starts), the 26-year-old posted an 18-5 record with a 2.59 ERA, 1.03 WHIP, and 255 strikeouts. Crochet struck out 31.3% of the batters he faced while walking hitters at just a 5.7% clip. He also showed the ability to handle a significant workload, jumping nearly 60 innings from his previous career high of 146 innings pitched in 2024. Fantasy managers could have some level of concern that the innings spike could increase Crochet's injury risk. However, he's healthy heading into 2026 and projects to lead a Boston team that should provide him with plenty of run support. Crochet profiles as a no-doubt fantasy SP1 and has a chance to be the number one overall pitcher in fantasy in 2026.

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Garrett Crochet will start the first game of the wild card series against the Yankees on Tuesday, reports Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald. The 26-year-old will face off against Max Fried in what could be a pitcher's duel, with both starters going into the contest with a regular season ERA below 3.00. Crochet was one of the best pitchers in baseball this season, posting a 2.59 ERA, 1.03 WHIP, 255 strikeouts, and 46 walks through 205 innings. The Red Sox haven't yet announced their plans for the second game of the series, in which Carlos Rodon is toeing the rubber for New York.

Boston Red Sox ace Garrett Crochet (16-5) struck out double-digit hitters for the eighth time this season and earned his 16th win in a 6-4 defeat of the New York Yankees on Sunday. The left-hander fanned 12, tying a season high, while allowing three earned runs on five hits and one walk over six innings. After combining for 22 strikeouts in his past two starts, Crochet comfortably leads the majors with 240 (Detroit's Tarik Skubal ranks second with 224). The 26-year-old, who's also No. 1 in the league in innings pitched (191 1/3), now owns a stellar 2.63 ERA with a 1.05 WHIP. He's scheduled to make his next start on Saturday against the division-rival Tampa Bay Rays. Crochet stifled the Rays in a July 12 win, throwing a complete-game, three-hit shutout with nine strikeouts.

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Garrett Crochet was sharp on Monday night in Sacramento, carrying his team to a comfortable 7-0 win to start their series against the Athletics. The ace allowed just three hits and no walks in seven shutout innings while racking up 10 strikeouts. He improved to 15-5 with a 2.57 ERA and 2.81FIP in his 29 starts, and he has already logged a career-high 185 1/3 innings. He moved back to the top of the major league leaderboard with 228 strikeouts, although Tarik Skubal has 222 strikeouts and pitches on Friday. If Skubal moves back in front, Crochet should have a chance to re-take the lead in his next start Sunday against the Yankees. Crochet has been outstanding in his first season in Boston and is a strong candidate for the AL Cy Young. He's been one of the top arms in all of fantasy baseball this year and will look to finish his great season while helping his team back to the postseason.

Red Sox ace Garrett Crochet will have his next start pushed back to Monday or Tuesday, with manager Alex Cora citing workload management. The 26-year-old lefty has been dominant in 2025, going 12-4 with a 2.23 ERA and an MLB-best 175 strikeouts. After logging 141 1/3 innings this season, just shy of last year's career-high 146, Boston is taking a cautious approach with their $170 million investment. With a playoff berth within reach, the Red Sox are prioritizing Crochet's health for the stretch run. Fantasy managers should expect extra days between starts down the stretch, though Crochet remains a must-start whenever he's on the mound.

Boston Red Sox left-hander Garrett Crochet (10-4) delivered his finest outing of an already stellar season on Saturday. The 26-year-old southpaw tossed a complete game shutout against the Rays, striking out nine and allowing just three baserunners in a 1-0 victory. Crochet needed only 100 pitches to go the distance and didn't allow an extra-base hit all afternoon. He enters the second half firmly in the American League Cy Young conversation, with a 2.23 ERA and 160 strikeouts over 129 1/3 innings.
