Red Sox Place Crochet on IL, Call Up Eaton

0:00On April 29, Boston Red Sox just placed Ace left the Garrett Crochet on the 15-day injured list with left-shoulder inflammation, and they called. Up utility guy, Nate Eaton from AAA Worcester, to fill the spot. Crochet was the American League's side-young runner-up last year, with an 18-5 record and a 2.59 ERA, but he's sitting at 6.30-6 starts this season. He bounced back strong Saturday, striking out 7-over-6 shut-out innings and a 17-to-1 blowout win over Baltimore. That same win came right after the team fire manager Alex Cora and five coaches, shaking things up big time. Crochet has been an all-star the past two seasons, and Boston traded for him last December before locking him into a $170 million dollar. Six-year deal this March. Earlier this month on April 13, he had a rough one against Minnesota, giving up 11 runs in just one and two-thirds innings, but he looked. Sharp versus the Orioles.

1:00Eaton's hitting 292 with three homers and 12 RBIs in 27 AAA games this year. He played for Kansas City in 20, 22 and 2023, and suited up for 41 games with Boston last season. The socks had to face the Toronto Blue Jays this Wednesday afternoon, hoping to keep the momentum rolling without their top arm. Stay tuned with MLB News Today, AI-powered updates.
