Hopefully he fixes any issues so his trade value is high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he can throw a few good innings in September that might be enough. Show some sign he can help a team through an entire season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texsox Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 I wonder if we were fans of a consistently successful franchise if we would have a different view of our young potential superstar. Most here are holding our breath waiting for his arm to fall off. I wonder if we were Dodger fans if we'd be thinking in two years he's going to be competing for a Cy Young Award and we have team control. Based on our history we have no reason to believe this would actually work out for us, other franchises do have this work out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago White Sox Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 Are they really going to keep him pitching the entire season? I thought they had previously said they would shut him down at some point? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s a decent pitcher who had one good half season. They got an underwhelming return for Cease and it will be worse for Crochet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well if he is a decent pitcher who only had one good half season and isn't an ace, how could the return be underwhelming? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He just needs to take care of his health and conditioning, which takes a while 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milkman delivers Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 Oh look, our “ace” has a 3.65 ERA and is steadily destroying his trade value. It will be fully destroyed when he injures himself. Why the f*** is this guy not already shut down for the season? Good thing he sabotaged his own trade value a few weeks ago. Now the Sox are intent on finishing the job. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sox must be doing this to prove to other teams that Crochet can handle this many innings so he retains his trade value in the offseason. It isn’t going to work and will more than likely backfire in their faces with either more horrible outings or an injury. Crochet should be shut down. Man, the Sox are stupid. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A franchise that realizes guys take more than one season to build up to a full workload. I think he’s more than proven that he’s well on his way to a full workload. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It won't decrease his trade value though. It will actually decrease his value to pitch the rest of the season and have him completely fall apart mechanically. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
