DALLAS — The Angels and Nationals have expressed interest in Gleyber Torres, The Post has learned.
The Nationals have inquired if Torres would switch to third base because they have Luis Garcia at second.
Torres resisted a move to third base when the Yankees obtained Jazz Chisholm at the trade deadline.
But Torres could be more motivated to change spots now to improve his financial possibilities and because he would have an offseason to prepare for a position change.
It also is conceivable that Washington could play Torres at second and see what the trade market is for Garcia, a lefty swinger who hit 18 homers and had a 112 OPS-plus last season.
The Angels had a .593 OPS at second base last year — the second worst in the majors.
