Red Sox select Tommy Kahnle from Triple-A, move Garrett Crochet to injured list
Summary

The Boston Red Sox have selected the contract of right-hander Tommy Kahnle from Triple-A Worcester as part of a bullpen reinforcement. To accommodate Kahnle, the team is likely moving Garrett Crochet to the 60-day injured list due to ongoing shoulder and lat issues. Kahnle, a former Yankees reliever, had a strong showing in Triple-A, posting a 1.40 ERA in 19.1 innings with 25.3% strikeouts. His contract selection follows the triggering of an opt-out clause. Kahnle previously made 66 appearances for the Detroit Tigers in 2025, where he accumulated a 4.43 ERA. The Red Sox expect Kahnle to bolster their bullpen as they navigate injuries in the pitching staff.
