This team isn’t competing until 2026 at the earliest anyways and it’s not like the Sox are going to pay him after the 2026 season if he’s the next Randy Johnson.

Totally makes up for the worst hitter in the majors. Sadly, I'm not sure he's the worst hitter on this team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crochet makes no money and has 2 years of control after this? At this rate, we're gonna start trading prospects once they reach AA because "there's no way we're competing until 2040." 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s nothing to suggest they contend in 25-26. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could... you know, sign him? Sox don't plan on being good in the next 6 years. You watching what this guy is doing in his second big league start vs avcuna and an elite offense? The injury risk is large which is the big concern but if he shows me durability and sustained success this year I'm not moving. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
