Red Sox's Garrett Crochet begins throwing as he returns from injury
Summary

Garrett Crochet of the Boston Red Sox has started throwing again following a long absence due to a shoulder injury. Interim manager Chad Tracy confirmed Crochet began throwing at a distance of 50 to 60 feet. Though Crochet had struggled earlier this season with a 6.30 ERA before going on the injured list, there are hopes he could be available for the postseason if he continues to progress. The Red Sox aim to ensure Crochet's health as they consider his role, potentially in relief, later this fall.
