"In case anyone needs a quick recap of a complex story, Garrett Crochet seemed as good as gone at the trade deadline right up until he tried to leverage the situation to his advantage... That involved threatening to sit out the postseason if he didn't get a contract extension from his new team. An empty threat? Almost certainly. But it effectively killed his market all the same."
"The White Sox are nonetheless sure to try to trade Crochet again this winter. He's a hugely valuable asset, as he's an All-Star who's only 25 and under club control through 2026. And after a 121-loss season, the White Sox need prospects a lot more than they need an ace pitcher."
"Crochet would provide the Mets with another powerful presence in the rotation for when the playoffs roll around next autumn. Provided he can stay healthy and offer similar production to the last couple of seasons, Crochet would be an excellent acquisition for the rising Mets."
