About this episode
Garrett Crochet’s dominant season sparks debate after being ranked just 11th on the Locked On MLB Top 100 list. Should the Boston Red Sox ace be considered a true top-10 player after finishing second in AL Cy Young voting and leading MLB in strikeouts? Host Gabby (Hurlbut) Maljanian questions how players like Yoshinobu Yamamoto and Cal Raleigh landed above Crochet, breaking down crucial pitching stats, playoff impact, and the significance of a six-pitch arsenal.
The episode also spotlights Red Sox standouts Jarren Duran, Roman Anthony, Ranger Suárez, and Aroldis Chapman, highlighting each player's strengths, 2025 stats, and controversial Top 100 placements. Gabby (Hurlbut) Maljanian discusses how speed, versatility, and post-season prowess elevate the Red Sox roster, while questioning the methodology behind national player rankings. Can these players silence doubters and power Boston’s postseason hopes for 2026?
