The Boston Red Sox landed their ace this offseason, acquiring pitcher\u00a0Garrett Crochet in a trade with the Chicago White Sox.<\/p>\n

The team has now locked down the 25-year-old, giving him a big extension and then making a five-word statement on his future with the team.<\/p>\n

The team announced on April 1 that they finalized a six-year contract extension with Crochet. MLB.com’s Mark Feinsand reported that the deal is worth $170 million.<\/p>\n

Red Sox chief baseball officer Craig Breslow said he wasn’t sure whether the deal would come together, but found common ground with the pitcher and finalized it this week.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was thinking that there was a decent probability that we were going to need to pick up these conversations next offseason,\u201d Breslow said. \u201cFortunately, I think we both recognized that there could be common ground here, and it wouldn’t take a ton, given all of the legwork that had been created. And so in the end, we were able to get this over the line in a way that came together pretty quickly.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Red Sox took to social media to celebrate the news, delivering a succinct message on Breslow’s status.<\/p>\n

“Crochet is here to stay,” read the team’s post on X.<\/p>\n
