Garrett Crochet, recently traded from the Chicago White Sox to the Boston Red Sox, expressed satisfaction with his transition, highlighting the excitement of joining a historic franchise. The trade was finalized months after extensive discussions, providing Crochet with a mix of anticipation and relief. The White Sox received four promising prospects in exchange, all ranked among Boston's top 15, underscoring the significance of the deal. The move comes as MLB analysts note the Red Sox's strong prospects for the upcoming season in the competitive American League East.
For me, it wasn't that hard to move on. Especially going to the Red Sox, going to such a storied franchise, I was excited, quite frankly.
There's all this build-up ... You can really go back to the [trade] deadline and then in the offseason. Winter meetings were what I was targeting.
It just happened so quickly. I think it went really smoothly, just by the conversations I had with the front office over in Boston.
All four players acquired for Crochet were ranked among the Red Sox's top 15 prospects at the time of the trade, according to mlb.com.
