White Sox's Garrett Crochet: No plans for shutdown
The White Sox do not plan to move Crochet to the bullpen or shut him down this season, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports.
Heyman also writes that Crochet will be on a "normal workload as a starter" until the end of the regular season. However, given that manager Pedro Grifol went on record last month that Crochet's workload would be managed, Heyman might just be referring to the pitcher continuing to take regular turns in the rotation. The lefty being pulled early from outings still seems likely. Of course, if/when Crochet is traded, the plan could change. Interestingly, Heyman also adds that Crochet would request a contract extension from the team that acquires him in order to agree to pitch in October. Crochet has already thrown 111.1 innings in 2024, which is 26 more than he had thrown in his entire pro career coming into the season.
