Boston Red Sox left-hander Garrett Crochet has paid immediate dividends since signing a six-year, $170 million contract extension this season.

Crochet, 25, is 2-1 with a 1.38 ERA and an 0.88 WHIP. He's scheduled to start Saturday's matchup against his former team in the Chicago White Sox, who traded Crochet to Boston last winter for four prospects.
