Chicago White Sox left-handed pitcher Garrett Crochet has been named the 2024 American League Comeback Player of the Year, the team announced Thursday.
As the Major League Baseball world waits for the dam to break on the lucrative free-agent market, many eyes remain trained on the New York Mets. The Mets are going to go wild this winter. Everyone knows owner Steve Cohen is aching to build on his team's surprise run to the National League Championship Series, and he has the seemingly infinite means to make it happen.
