Impact Shortly after being placed on the IL on April 29 due to left shoulder inflammation, Crochet indicated that he wouldn't be shut down from throwing and expressed confidence that he would be ready to return from the shelf in the minimum 15 days. While Crochet hasn't run into any setbacks since then, the Red Sox are taking a cautious approach in building their staff ace back up from the injury. Tracy didn't rule out the possibility of Crochet requiring a rehab assignment prior to being activated, though if Crochet is able to progress to throwing off a mound and facing hitters within the next week or two, he probably won't need to head to a minor-league affiliate before rejoining the Boston rotation.
