Garrett Crochet
#352026 Fantasy Baseball Player Profile
Garrett Crochet silenced all doubters in his debut season with Boston. Following a blockbuster December 2024 trade, he justified the Red Sox's $170 million investment with a dominant, Cy Young-caliber campaign. Crochet finished as the AL Cy Young runner-up, posting an 18-5 record with a 2.59 ERA and a 1.03 WHIP. Most importantly, he answered durability concerns by leading the American League with 205.1 innings pitched. He was a strikeout machine, leading MLB with 255 punchouts (31% K-rate) while maintaining elite control (5.7 BB%). He anchored the rotation for an 89-win team, proving he can handle the pressure of being a true ace in Fenway Park.
Entering 2026: Crochet is a bonafide SP1 and a consensus top-5 pitcher. His 2025 breakout proved he offers the rare combination of massive strikeout volume, elite ratios, and workhorse durability. While prudent managers should monitor for potential fatigue following such a significant jump in innings and acknowledge the inherent volatility of pitching in Fenway Park, his high win equity and league-leading bat-missing ability outweigh the risks. Expect him to command a late first or early second-round pick as he looks to replicate his Cy Young-caliber performance.

AVG, OBP, SLG, ERA and WHIP are season-to-date through each game, not that game alone — so the column reads as a trend and its last value is the season figure. They stay season-to-date when the log is filtered by opponent; the figure for the filtered games is the one in the Total row. The second game of a doubleheader is marked (2).
