Red Sox’ Kutter Crawford headed for surgery, likely out for entire season
Kutter Crawford is unlikely to pitch for the Red Sox at all in 2025.
The right-hander will undergo surgery on his wrist, manager Alex Cora announced Wednesday afternoon, before the Angels series finale in Anaheim.
Crawford, who turned 29 on April 1, was one of baseball’s most durable starters in 2024. He made a career-high 33 starts, tied with seven pitchers for the MLB lead. He pitched to a 4.36 ERA over 183.2 innings, but gave up 34 home runs, the worst mark in the majors.
Yet Crawford was also pitching through a knee ailment for much of last season and as a result, began the current campaign on the injured list. While rehabbing his knee, he injured his wrist off the field. Cora declined to go into details, but told reporters it was an “accident” and not “irresponsible” behavior.
