Garrett Crochet, the Red Sox's notable offseason acquisition, has demonstrated exceptional talent, holding a 2.04 ERA and striking out 89 batters in 75 innings across 12 starts. Despite his ace-level performance, the Red Sox have only a .500 record when Crochet pitches, losing their last three outings. In contrast, Jesus Luzardo of the Phillies has thrived, boasting a 5-0 record supported by a strong offense. Even as Crochet ranks as the second-best offseason acquisition according to Jon Heyman, the discrepancy in run support raises questions about what his record could be with better backing.
Crochet holds a 2.04 ERA through 12 starts with 89 strikeouts in 75 innings, showcasing ace-caliber performance despite the Red Sox's struggles.
MLB Network's Jon Heyman declared Jesus Luzardo as the best offseason trade acquisition, praising performance and run support compared to Crochet.
