The Chicago White Sox are looking to trade ace pitcher Garrett Crochet this winter, with the Philadelphia Phillies as a potential destination. Crochet had a strong season, making 32 starts and earning an All-Star selection. A proposed trade would send Crochet to the Phillies in exchange for three prospects, including 20-year-old shortstop Aidan Miller, ranked 26th in baseball. The deal also includes 18-year-old catching prospect Tait and 26-year-old right-hander Johnson. This move would enhance the Phillies' rotation, adding a fifth All-Star pitcher. It would also allow them to focus their spending on improving their bullpen and outfield for the upcoming season.
