2026 Fantasy Outlook
After breaking out as a full-time starter with the White Sox in 2024, Crochet was traded to the Red Sox last winter and established himself as one of the best pitchers in MLB during 2025. He posted an 18-5 record with a 2.59 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 46 walks across 205.1 innings while leading the league with 255 strikeouts. Despite setting a career-high workload by nearly 60 innings, the left-hander still averaged 97.6 mph on his fastball and maintained excellent control, with his 5.7 percent walk rate ranking 10th among qualified starters. Now entering his age-27 season and third year as a full-time starter, it's possible Crochet has yet to reach his ceiling. He's already a true ace with a high floor given his strikeout numbers, and he'll enter 2026 as one of the top candidates for the AL Cy Young Award. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a five-year, $141.5 million contract extension with the Red Sox in March of 2025. Contract includes $30 million player option for 2031, barring 120 days spent on IL with left arm injury in 2030. Contract includes $2 million trade assignment bonus. $15 million team option available for 2032 if 120 days spent on IL with left arm injury in 2031. Contract includes $2 million escalator for first-place Cy Young Award finish, $1.5 million for second or third place, $1 million for fourth or fifth place and $500,000 for sixth through 10th place.
Strikes out seven in win Tuesday
Crochet (2-1) earned the win Tuesday against the Brewers, allowing two runs on five hits and two walks with seven strikeouts across 6.1 innings.
Analysis
It was a nice rebound outing for Crochet after he was tagged for five runs (four earned) in a loss last Wednesday against the Astros. Crochet got back to using his fastball against Milwaukee, averaging 95.7 mph with the heater. Crochet got into some trouble in the seventh inning, allowing four of the five batters he faced to reach base, including a bases-loaded hit-by-pitch, but Zack Kelly was able to come on and get the final two outs to stop the bleeding. Crochet owns a 3.12 ERA and 22:4 K:BB across 17.1 innings. He'll take the mound in Minnesota on Monday for his fourth start.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2025
2024
2023
2022
2021
Crochet's career trajectory has been anything but traditional as he made his MLB debut for the White Sox in 2020 without first playing in the minors, and he transitioned to the starting rotation in 2024 without having previously made a professional start. The left-hander was dominant despite being on the worst team in the history of MLB, and he finished the campaign with a 3.58 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 209:33 K:BB over 146 innings. Chicago elected not to trade him at the summer deadline and heavily monitored his workload across the final three months of the season, during which he never pitched more than four innings. He also labored in those final 14 starts with a 4.84 ERA, but those struggles aren't a major surprise given it was his first season as a professional starter. The Red Sox acquired Crochet for a package of prospects this winter, so he'll be pitching his home games in one of the most hitter-friendly parks in the game but should also get much better run support and defense than the White Sox gave him a year ago.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Cy Young finalist in AL
Crochet has been named a finalist for the 2025 American League Cy Young Award.
Analysis
Crochet made 32 starts for Boston in the 2025 regular season and was outstanding, going 18-5 with a 2.59 ERA and 255 strikeouts in 205.1 innings. Crochet also showed his worth in the playoffs, as he tossed 7.2 innings and fanned 11 in a 3-1 win over the Yankees in Game 1 of the AL Wild Card round, although that would be his lone appearance in the postseason. Crochet, who's under contract with the Red Sox until the end of the 2031 season, has a realistic shot at winning the award, although he's competing with Tarik Stubal and Hunter Brown.
