Must have made the determination that totally shutting down for months and months before 2025 would be MORE likely to result in injury…in consultation with multiple doctors, Crochet, agent, family. PTAC would present the case, surely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaleAleSox Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 Crochet has really let his pitches per inning climb up it seems. And is a bum this game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 Can’t let him go to 35-40 pitches in one extended inning… Get him out of there. This isn’t doing Crochet any good. Second game of season with multiple homers. Philly 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 Just shut him down, it’s not like he’s been good lately. Add him to the list of clowns on this team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 Lovely situation when your two most important players are stuck with the organization and vice versa. Stockholm Syndrome?? 77 pitches has been limit over the last four times out, 3 2/3’s. Trying to let him get the feel of going a full season for another 6-7 weeks might be at the point of backfiring or being counterproductive psychologically. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically it’s Imanaga to get excited about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
