00:00Julian McWilliams, Boston Globe, Source, Red Sox on the verge of trading for Garrett Crochet.
00:09Look out!
00:10The deal includes top prospect Kyle Teal and none of the other big name prospects.
00:16Holy mackerel.
00:17So, it was Marcella Meyer's name that was out there earlier in the week, maybe even
00:21late last week.
00:23Red Sox hang on to Meyer, they hang on to Roman Anthony, they hang on to Christian Campbell,
00:27they have landed Garrett Crochet from the White Sox according to Julian McWilliams
00:33of the Boston Globe.
00:34I would give that a standing ovation.
00:35That's excellent.
00:36No, that's excellent.
00:37That's a real guy.
00:38That is a guy who's better than anybody else that you have.
00:39Now, the questions with Crochet, you remember last year at the trade deadline, it was, I'm
00:45only going to go somewhere if I get a new contract and I won't pitch out of the bullpen.
00:50I won't even pitch for you unless I get a contract.
00:52So there was a lot of stuff going on last year because he was one of the big names that
00:55was out there.
00:56The Red Sox were obviously terrible.
00:57He had a really good year, 146 innings pitched, but 209 strikeouts in a 3-5-8 ERA.
01:05He is only 25 years old.
01:08So that is a massive, now I'm just curious, he's arbitration eligible until 2027?
01:13Yeah, they should pay him right now.
01:15They should absolutely pay him right now.
01:16If you're worried about paying pitchers $200, $250, $300 million, they should pay him right
01:21now.
01:22Jeff Patson, this is when reporters get territorial.
01:25Oh boy.
01:26Red Sox are finalizing a trade to acquire left-hander Garrett Crochet from the White
01:29Sox, sources tell ESPN.
01:31He doesn't have any prospects involved, but he says the deal is in the medical phase.
01:34Not official, but trending towards it.
01:37Does he say that Julian McNichols had it first or McWilliams?
01:40He does not.
01:41Julian McWilliams.
01:42McNichols?
01:43Is he a player?
01:44Yeah, Jeremy McNichols.
01:45Jeremy McNichols.
01:46Yeah, he scored some touchdowns.
01:47Christian McNichols' rookie nest?
01:48Oh yeah.
01:49Oh, good one.
01:50I can't know everybody.
01:51Is it really credit if you don't credit the right name?
01:53Julian McWilliams.
01:54I got around to it.
01:55Good point, Hart.
01:56Julian McWilliams did not say it's done either.
01:59Oh boy.
02:00He said on the verge.
02:01This thing better get done.
02:02No, no.
02:03Look, I'm still pissed they're not signing free agents and it's annoying, but-
02:05But this is good.
02:06I mean, we hit the breaking news thing.
02:07It kind of has to happen now.
02:08Yeah, yeah, yeah.
02:09That's true.
02:10It's locked in.
02:11It has to go through.
02:12If you're going to get-
02:13It's radio science.
02:14If you're not going to get uncomfortable spending, you better get uncomfortable with
02:15the prospects.
02:16We said this earlier in the show.
02:17Crochet might have been the gem of the trade market, and they landed.
