Garrett Crochet Doesn't Plan On Changing Pitch Mix
Garrett Crochet said he doesn't plan on drastically changing his pitch mix in 2025 in his first season with the team. "But ultimately, I don't think that I'll change the fastball/cutter usage a whole lot. I feel like that's kind of my bread and butter, and a big reason why I had success last year. But the addition of the sinker, I think, is a conversation worth having," Crochet said. The 25-year-old southpaw was a rousing success in his move from the bullpen to the starting rotation for the Chicago White Sox in 2024 before he was recently dealt to the BoSox. Crochet tinkered with a sinker later in the season to give him five pitches to attack hitters with, but he should continue to lean on his four-seam/cutter mix. He was an All-Star in 2024 but slowed down in the second half and had his innings monitored. Crochet should be on a longer leash in 2025 and once again has ace potential.
