Red Sox's Crochet Flops, Fans Worry
Description
Garrett Crochets Struggles: Red Soxs Ace Stumbles, Fans Worry
The Boston Red Soxs 2026 rotation, built around stopping runs, is facing challenges early on. Ace Garrett Crochet, who had a stellar 2025 season, is leading the flop with a 7.88 ERA over his first five starts. His performance has been inconsistent, with a nightmare outing against the Twins and a blowup against the Tigers. Crochet attributes his struggles to shaky command, while the Red Sox staff sees it as a rough patch. Fans and the team are hopeful, but the pressure is mounting as the Red Sox rely on pitching to compete. A National League exec has raised red flags about Crochets dipping velocity and potential fatigue from his heavy workload last year. Crochet gets another chance on Saturday against the Baltimore Orioles.
