Buehler, 30, marks Boston’s second major starting pitching acquisition this offseason, <a href="https://nypost.com/2024/12/11/sports/red-sox-acquiring-white-sox-ace-garrett-crochet-in-blockbuster-trade/">along with its trade for former White Sox Garrett Crochet</a>.

Boston is now set to start Crochet, Buehler, Tanner Houck, Brayan Bello and Lucas Giolito after last season’s 81-81 finish.

Buehler went 1-6 with a 5.38 ERA in the regular season last year but rebounded to throw 10 scoreless innings spanning three outings (two starts) in the NLCS and World Series.
