Red Sox Transfer Garrett Crochet to 60-Day Injured List

Boston opened a 40-man roster spot to add a reliever as Crochet follows a conservative rehab timetable that keeps him out until at least June 25.

Overview

  • The club transferred Crochet to the 60-day injured list on Friday, making him ineligible to return until at least June 25.
  • The move followed left-lat tightness that developed after live throwing and imaging that showed a low-grade strain, prompting Boston to halt his throwing progression.
  • Transferring Crochet freed a 40-man roster spot and the Red Sox added reliever Joe La Sorsa to the active roster while optioning starter Brayan Bello to Triple-A Worcester.
  • Boston is covering Crochet’s absence with quality starts from Connelly Early, Sonny Gray, Ranger Suárez and Payton Tolle and may call up Jake Bennett to replace Bello in the rotation.
  • The club is monitoring other pitchers closely as Garrett Whitlock begins a rehab appearance and Aroldis Chapman pitches through a hamstring issue, and the cautious approach to Crochet’s lat reflects how premature throwing can prolong rehab.
