Crochet (shoulder) said that he's scheduled to throw a second live batting practice session Sunday, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports. Crochet completed a one-inning live BP session Tuesday, marking the first time that he faced hitters since landing on the injured list April 29 due to left shoulder inflammation. The southpaw felt pleased with how the session went, noting afterward that he's no longer dealing with fatigue and is now focused on ramping up his workload and honing his mechanics. Red Sox interim manager Chad Tracy was similarly upbeat after Crochet's workout, noting that the 26-year-old's velocity sat in the mid-90s. Boston hasn't ruled out the possibility of Crochet returning from the IL without going out on a rehab assignment, but because he's been on the shelf for the past month, he'll most likely need to make a start in the minors prior to being activated.

Live BP scheduled
Crochet (shoulder) will face hitters Tuesday, Tim Healey of The Boston Globe reports. This will be Crochet's first live batting practice session since landing on the injured list. He threw another side session Saturday. If Tuesday's session goes well, the Red Sox could send Crochet on a rehab assignment.
Will face hitters next week
Interim manager Chad Tracy said Friday that Crochet (shoulder) will throw a bullpen session this weekend and live batting practice early next week, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports. Crochet has been sidelined since April 25 due to left shoulder inflammation, but he continues to check boxes in his rehab process and appears to be nearing a return to Boston's rotation. It's unclear if Crochet will go out on a rehab assignment or if the Red Sox will simply use live BP and simulated games to get his arm built back up for starts. It's been a rough start to the 2026 campaign for Crochet, who owns a 6.30 ERA, 1.47 WHIP and 37:11 K:BB across his first 30 innings.
