Red Sox Injury Woes Deepen: Anthony & Crochet Setbacks
9 Jun
Summary
- Garrett Crochet transferred to 60-day IL, ineligible until June 25.
- Roman Anthony's hand strain prevents return to swinging progression.
- Garret Whitlock to be activated from 15-day IL.
The Boston Red Sox are grappling with significant injury updates impacting key players Roman Anthony and Garrett Crochet.
Garrett Crochet, sidelined with a minor LAT strain, has been transferred to the 60-day injured list. This move makes him ineligible to return to the Red Sox rotation until June 25. Crochet had reported tightness rather than pain in his hand, and was not close to a return even before this recent setback.
Roman Anthony is also facing a delayed return due to a right-hand strain. He has been unable to resume his swinging progression after experiencing pain. The team is working to manage his recovery, which has seen previous reports of a torn ligament confirmed by Anthony himself.
In more positive news, the Red Sox are preparing to activate reliever Garret Whitlock from the 15-day injured list. Whitlock, who landed on the IL in late May, made a successful rehab appearance in Triple-A Worcester. His return is expected to bolster the Red Sox bullpen.
