Tim Healey reports there are no guarantees Garrett Crochet will pitch again this season as he recovers from shoulder inflammation and a lat strain; with clearance not yet reached and a spring-training–like ramp-up required after recovery, his return for 2026 remains uncertain and fantasy players should consider benching or dropping him.
Garrett Crochet said his rehab from a lat strain effectively has to restart after shoulder inflammation, making a return before the All-Star break unlikely; the best-case scenario is a July 17 return for Boston’s doubleheader with the Rays, but the timeline remains unclear, leaving the Red Sox to navigate injuries and offense as they explore their deadline options.
Red Sox ace Garrett Crochet said his lat strain is much worse than expected, keeping him out since late April after an IL stint for shoulder fatigue; a May 26 simulated outing preceded another shutdown due to the lat issue.
Garrett Crochet has been diagnosed with a low-grade lat strain and will resume throwing only after symptoms subside, delaying his return as he has been out since April 26 with shoulder inflammation. With multiple pitchers on the injured list and a potential 60-day IL move for roster relief, a comeback within three weeks appears unlikely.
The Milwaukee Brewers have placed reliever Justin Wilson on the 15-day injured list due to a left lat strain, just after he made his debut for the team following a long rehab from Tommy John surgery. The extent of the injury is unclear, but it is considered significant, leaving Hoby Milner as the only left-handed pitcher in the MLB bullpen. The Brewers may need to consider adding lefty relief help if Wilson's absence is prolonged.
