Kutter Crawford - Page 19 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Continues excellent stretch Crawford (3-3) earned the win during Tuesday's 2-1 victory over Houston, allowing one run on seven hits and one walk with six strikeouts in six innings.

Impact Crawford surrendered his lone run on consecutive hits to lead off the bottom of the first inning, but he was able to quiet Houston's potent offense thereafter, retiring seven straight Astros at one point. The 26-year-old induced a solid 12 swinging strikes on 94 pitches en route to striking out six for the fourth time in his last six games. During that span, Crawford has pitched to a 2.38 ERA across 34 innings while facing top-tier competition in the Yankees, Blue Jays, Guardians and Rays twice. He carries a 4.15 ERA and 1.22 WHIP into his next start, tentatively scheduled for Sunday against Kansas City.

Effective again in no-decision Crawford pitched 5.2 innings against Cleveland on Thursday, allowing one run on three hits and no walks while striking out two batters. He did not factor in the decision.

Impact The rookie gave up a solo homer to Jose Ramirez in the fourth inning, but that was the only run the Guardians could muster against him. Crawford wasn't overpowering -- he picked up only two punchouts and induced only eight swings-and-misses -- but he was efficient in throwing 49 of 69 pitches for strikes. The right-hander fell one out shy of his third straight quality start, but it was nonetheless another effective outing that should strengthen his case to remain in the rotation even when Boston's staff returns to full health. Over his past five starts, Crawford has posted a 2.57 ERA and 26:4 K:BB across 28 innings.

Goes six innings in loss Crawford (2-3) took the loss against Toronto on Saturday, allowing three runs on five hits while striking out four and walking one over six innings.

He has a 24:4 K:BB and a 2.82 ERA this month despite facing the Rays twice and the Yankees and Blue Jays once apiece. He will take a 4.50 ERA into his next appearance.

Red Sox's Kutter Crawford Turns In Another Strong Showing Vs. Blue Jays Red Sox starting pitcher Kutter Crawford worked around one tough inning to turn in another solid outing Saturday against the Blue Jays.

Fans six in no-decision Crawford pitched six-plus innings against Tampa Bay on Thursday, allowing three runs on six hits and no walks while striking out six batters. He did not factor in the decision.

Impact Crawford was splendid through six frames, holding the Rays scoreless and giving up just three hits. He was asked to come back out for the seventh, and things took a turn for the worse when the first three batters he faced got a hit against him. All three came around to score, cutting Crawford off from a chance for a victory. Despite the disappointing finish, it was another impressive outing by the rookie, who completed six innings for the first time as a major-leaguer and notched his first career quality start. Crawford has given up just four runs and struck out 20 batters over 16.1 frames across his past three appearances. However, Nathan Eovaldi (back/hip) is slated to return from the injured list this weekend, and Rich Hill (knee) and Michael Wacha (shoulder) could be back soon after the All-Star break, so Crawford may not be keeping his spot in the rotation.

Extended outing on tap Crawford is scheduled to either start or serve as a bulk reliever in Thursday's series finale with the Rays in Tampa Bay, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.

Impact The Red Sox intend to wait until Friday's series opener with the Yankees to bring Nathan Eovaldi (back/hip) back from the 15-day injured list, so Crawford will receive one more turn through the rotation as a temporary fifth starter. Crawford impressed in his start last weekend against the Yankees, covering five innings and striking out six while allowing one earned run on four hits and two walks in a no-decision.

JULY 12, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Impressive over five innings Crawford pitched five innings against the Yankees on Saturday, allowing one run on four hits and two walks while striking out six. He did not factor in the decision.

Impact Crawford did a good job of taming the potent Yankees offense, holding New York scoreless until Aaron Hicks launched a solo shot against him in the fifth inning. That was the only extra-base hit the right-hander allowed in the contest, and he also racked up six strikeouts. Crawford is making a case for sticking with the big club for the long haul with his past two appearances. In those outings, he's compiled 10.1 innings during which he's given up only one run while posting a 14:3 K:BB.

In two games against the Rays this season, he's thrown 8.1 scoreless innings with 13 punchouts. Crawford owns a 5.04 ERA with a 32:13 K:BB through 25 innings this season.

Recalled by Boston Crawford was recalled from Triple-A Worcester on Monday.

Impact The Red Sox are planning for a bullpen game Monday against the Rays after Michael Wacha (arm) was scratched from his scheduled start, and Crawford is a strong candidate to serve as a bulk reliever behind opener Austin Davis.

Sent to minors The Red Sox optioned Crawford to Triple-A Worcester on Sunday.

Impact Crawford's removal from the 26-man active roster means that Josh Winckowski will stick around as the Red Sox's No. 5 starter until Nathan Eovaldi (back) is ready to return from the 15-day injured list. The Red Sox added newly acquired reliever James Norwood to the roster as a replacement for Crawford, who was tagged for four earned runs on six hits and zero walks across four innings while getting handed the loss Saturday against the Cardinals.

Takes loss Saturday Crawford (1-2) was tagged with the loss against St. Louis on Saturday, allowing four runs on six hits while striking out three over four innings.

Impact Crawford fell behind early in the contest, giving up a two-run homer to Nolan Arenado in the first inning. He was tagged with an additional run in each of the second and fourth frames before departing. The right-hander tied a season-worst mark by giving up four runs, though his other such appearance was in a 1.2-inning relief outing April 18. This was Crawford's second start of the campaign, and he could be heading back to the bullpen with Garrett Whitlock (hip) and Nathan Eovaldi (back) each nearing a return from the injured list.

Receiving another start Crawford is scheduled to make his next start with Red Sox on Saturday against the Cardinals in Boston, Ian Browne of MLB.com reports.

Impact After striking out seven while blanking the Mariners over five innings in his spot start in Seattle last weekend, Crawford will draw the third start of his big-league career Saturday. He may not stick in the Boston rotation beyond Saturday's game, however, as starters Garrett Whitlock (hip) and Nathan Eovaldi (back) could both be on track to return from the 15-day injured list in the latter half of next week.

Dominant across five frames Crawford didn't factor into the decision during Sunday's 2-0 victory over Seattle, allowing one hit and four walks with seven strikeouts in five scoreless innings.

Impact Making his first start of the season and first appearance since May 13, Crawford took a no-hitter into the fifth inning. He was wildly effective as just 43 of 83 pitches went for strikes with an impressive 13 of the swinging variety in registering seven strikeouts, though the converse was the subpar four free passes. The 26-year-old is slated to start again next weekend against St. Louis and could remain part of the rotation if he continues to pitch like he did Sunday.

Making spot start vs. Mariners Crawford was recalled from Triple-A Worcester and will start Sunday's game against the Mariners, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.

Impact He most recently gave up three earned runs while striking out four over 3.1 innings at Triple-A on June 5. Crawford hasn't gone more than four innings in any outing in the majors or minors this season, so this should essentially amount to a bullpen game for Boston.

JUNE 12, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Starting in minors Crawford hit a batter and struck out two over four scoreless innings in his first start at Triple-A Worcester last Thursday.

Impact Crawford is a starter by trade, but he won a spot as a reliever on Boston's expanded April roster. There were rough outings in the majors, which can be partially traced to working sporadically out of the bullpen, a role in which the right-hander is not accustomed. He was scheduled to throw only three innings Thursday, but Crawford was so efficient he went back out for another frame.
