White Sox’s left-handed pitcher Garrett Crochet struck out six batters and held the Dodgers scoreless for 5.2 innings Monday. Although Chicago lost 3-0, Crochet controlled the Dodgers while he was on the mound.
Keep that in mind as the July 30 trade deadline approaches.
The White Sox are 21-61 and in full-on rebuilding mode. Several contending teams such as the Padres, Mariners, and Dodgers have shown interest in multiple Chicago players, including Crochet. White Sox GM Chris Getz has every incentive to get the most he can before the deadline in return for his best players.
This season, Crochet is 6-6 with a 3.
