The Boston Red Sox agreed to a six-year, $170 million contract extension, according to multiple media reports.
The deal will reportedly begin in 2026 and includes an opt-out after 2030.
Across four seasons, the lefty pitched in 104 games for the Chicago White Sox, posting a 3.29 ERA and 1.155 WHIP. In 2024, Crochet earned his first All-Star selection while posting a 3.58 ERA and career-high 209 strikeouts (seventh-most in the MLB) in 32 starts.
Over the offseason, the 25-year-old was shipped to the Red Sox in a blockbuster trade that sent four prospects to Chicago.
Crochet made his Red Sox debut on March 27 against the Texas Rangers. In five innings of a 5-2 win, he allowed two runs and gave up two walks while striking out four.
