"In four starts this year Crochet held the Evil Empire to a .200/.231/.370 slash line over 27 innings while striking out 39. He allowed 10 runs and walked 4. His appearances were 8.1, 6.0, 6.0, and 7.0 innings to give up 1, 3, 5, and 1 run. If he avoids a five-spot (although the Red Sox did win all four of his games) we'll all feel pretty good."
"Bello has struggled as of late but was quite good in two of his three starts against New York, holding them to: .172/.260/.250. He gave up 4 runs in one outing but went 7.0 scoreless in each of the other two. If that Bello can show up...there won't be much for Carlos Rod f3n. Rod f3n went 5.0, 5.0, and 5.2 innings his his starts against the Red Sox, losing the first two."
The 2025 Wild Card pits the Boston Red Sox against the New York Yankees in a best-of-three series after 162 regular-season games. Boston will start Garrett Crochet in Game 1 while New York counters with Max Fried; Crochet held the Yankees to a .200/.231/.370 slash line with 39 strikeouts in 27 innings, while Fried posted a 1.96 ERA with 22 strikeouts in 18 innings. Game 2 features Brayan Bello (not Lucas Giolito) for Boston against Carlos Rod f3n; Bello has two dominant starts and one rough outing versus New York. If the series splits, the Yankees would send rookie Cam Schlittler and Boston would likely turn to Connell for the deciding game.
