BOSTON — Boston Red Sox ace Garrett Crochet will head to the injured list with left shoulder inflammation in his throwing arm.

Crochet will miss at least the next 15 days with the Red Sox as the club hopes to turn their season around in the wake of a clubhouse overhaul that saw the team dismiss longtime manager Alex Cora and several bench coaches.

The Red Sox called up utilityman Nate Eaton to fill Crochet’s spot on the roster.

Crochet has had a rough start to the 2026 campaign, sporting a 6.30 ERA after six starts.

The Red Sox play the Toronto Blue Jays on Wednesday afternoon with first pitch at the Rogers Centre set for 3:07 p.m.
