There are still some big names on the free-agent pitching market, including Yoshinobu Yamamoto, Blake Snell, Jordan Montgomery, Marcus Stroman, Shota Imanaga, Lucas Giolito, Seth Lugo and Michael Wacha.
Once some of those dominos start to fall, the trade market for starting pitching could heat up, and there are four big names expected to be available via trade this offseason.
- RHP Shane Bieber, CLE
- RHP Corbin Burnes, MIL
- RHP Dylan Cease, CWS
- RHP Tyler Glasnow, TB
So how do those four pitchers stack up as potential trade targets for teams still looking to bolster their starting rotation?
