White Sox star lefty Garrett Crochet seems certain to go in trade this winter. And the White Sox should do much better than their deadline offers even two years from free agency (instead of three). Rivals predict they will receive a blue-chip prospect, and probably more. The Dodgers and Phillies are among teams at the forefront of talks, as USA Todays Bob Nightengale reported. The Orioles, stocked with the best collection of young position players, are in. So are the Mets, as The Post first reported.

The Yankees are letting Gleyber Torres look around but could consider him later depending on what he finds. The Yankees are in on everyone. That includes Blake Snell, Corbin Burnes and Max Fried, plus top relievers. Though most of the stars become more serious options if Soto isnt re-signed. Jacob Amaya Jersey
