16 hours ago16 hr When Crochet signed his six-year, $170 million extension with Boston, the contract included a player opt-out following the 2030 season. However, there was also a protection clause for the Red Sox if Crochet missed at least 120 consecutive days because of an arm injury.That clause has now been triggered.Crochet's 2030 opt-out is voided, meaning he can no longer choose to leave Boston after that season. Instead, the Red Sox now control an additional year of his contract and have gained a $15 million club option for 2032.In other words, what has been a nightmare season for Crochet has created a significant benefit for Boston from a contract standpoint.Yahoo sportsOf course 2030 calls for $28 million and 2031 $30 million…Also, Crochet is back to throwing from 90-120 feet in recent days.

I don't recall a lot of folks upset over trading Gonzo, other than he was a great kid, etc. Gonzo, in the best part of his minor league career, never approached Boston Smith's offensive numbers. Plus, Sox got a pretty good prospect in Thome.

I felt they were always going to find a way to land Thome but I am kind of baseball draft ignorant as its not like other drafts.

I don't recall a lot of folks upset over trading Gonzo, other than he was a great kid, etc. Gonzo, in the best part of his minor league career, never approached Boston Smith's offensive numbers. Plus, Sox got a pretty good prospect in Thome.Two things:1.) People are livid and even followed his production at Pittsburgh. “Gonzo hit a homer against the Guardians. Sure could have used that.” Blah blah blah. Yet then when he began to fall off, get pushed down the lineup, and was removed from the everyday lineup - it was crickets.2.) I put Thome’s name in quotes when referencing “the return” because that was wha People incorrectly equated the trade as representing. While partially true, it’s incomplete. Without that additional bonus space we wouldn’t have gotten three arguable first rounders.If you really think people weren’t upset - refresh your memory.
