FS: Garrett Crochet has more similarities to Chris Sale than ‘hard-throwing lefty’

[Rankin]

Our Dan Santaromita featured the comp between Chris Sale and Garrett Crochet. Great breakdown of what the Sox have in the left-hander.

I wonder how he feels about collared jerseys. ?

A side bar to this is they interviewed the kid after the draft and he fully admitted to modeling his slider after Chris Sale.

Has anyone asked his coach why he didn't start him much?

I think Hi8us mentioned in the draft thread that his coach took it easy on his last season due to fatigue.

The sequel is usually disappointing especially if the original was a masterpiece. I don’t mind the pick, but anyone thinking he is going to be Chris Sale is fooling themselves. But you can still be a couple notches below Sale and be more than worthy of being pick 11.

Hard to tell, but feel he'll be at his best as a filthy set up man

Anxious to see him chuck...whenever that may be

He could be our Empire Strikes Back.
