Dodgers, Orioles, Red Sox Viewed As Contenders For Garrett Crochet
6 days agoThe Los Angeles Dodgers, Baltimore Orioles and Boston Red Sox are reportedly viewed as the major contenders to try and trade for Chicago White Sox left-hander Garrett Crochet this offseason. According to a National League executive, "the team to watch on (Crochet), for sure" is the Orioles. Baltimore was in on lefty Blake Snell before he signed with the Dodgers and could try to re-sign Corbin Burnes, but they've been linked more to Max Fried and Nathan Eovaldi. The O's may be the most likely to get Crochet, as MLB Pipeline has their farm system ranked as No. 3 in baseball. The Red Sox are also loaded with highly touted position-player prospects. Even after signing Snell, the Dodgers are interested in trading for Crochet or signing Japanese sensation Roki Sasaki. The 25-year-old Crochet was one of the best pitchers in baseball in 2024 before slowing down in the second half and having his innings limited.
