Garrett Crochet (P - BOS)

9/14/25 11:14 PM -
Garrett Crochet comes up big to help the Red Sox salvage series finale against Yankees. The Boston Red Sox went out and picked up Garrett Crochet for game like this. Facing the rival New York Yankees in a race for the AL’s top wild-card spot, Crochet was given a big first-inning lead and matched his season high with 12 strikeouts over six innings in Boston’s 6-4 victory Sunday night that salvaged the finale of a three-game series. Crochet is 16-5 with a 2.63 ERA. The Red Sox acquired the 26-year-old left-hander in a trade with the Chicago White Sox during the offseason. Then, they didn’t wait very long to lock him up, signing him to a $170 million, six-year deal that starts next season. Boston is 1 1/2 games behind the Yankees, who hold the top wild-card slot.

Tarik Skubal (P - DET)

Tigers ace Tarik Skubal has clean scan after experiencing tightness on his left side. Detroit Tigers ace Tarik Skubal had an exam that showed no structural damage after he felt some tightness on his left side on Friday. Tigers manager A.J. Hinch says “the scan came back clean,” and “it's all good news.” Hinch says Skubal returned to Detroit after the test. The left-hander is expected to have his next post-start throwing day on Monday. The reigning AL Cy Young Award winner motioned to his dugout when he first felt tightness in the fourth inning of Friday night’s 8-2 loss to Miami. He departed after a brief conversation with Hinch and a Tigers trainer.

Konnor Griffin (OF/SS - PIT)

9/14/25 12:00 AM -
Prospect News: Top 50 Update For Mid-September 2025.
Format = Team Position Player | Age | Level | ETA
1. Brewers SS Jesus Made | 18 | AA | 2026
2. Pirates SS Konnor Griffin | 19 | AA | 2026
My guess is that every single other list will have Konnor Griffin at the top, and that’s totally understandable. I’ve said before that he’s a pull-heavy hitter headed to a poor park for that skill set in a poor organization when it comes to helping hitters reach their potential. Love the player. Love Made just a little bit more, given all the variables.
