After a visit to the Phillies on Tuesday, free agent LHP Patrick Corbin will travel to the Bronx to meet with the Yankees on Thursday, per The Post's Joel Sherman.

The Yankees are still looking to add to their rotation after last week's trade for Mariners lefty James Paxton, and Corbin is their most likely target, according to SNY's Andy Martino.

Corbin went 11-7 with a 3.15 ERA and 1.05 WHIP with the Diamondbacks this past season, striking out a career-high 246 batters in 33 starts (200 innings).

Though the Phillies and Yankees are favorites for the two-time All-Star, there are other teams looking to be his suitor, according to FanCred's Jon Heyman.

Yankees GM Brian Cashman has been open about wanting to add two starters this offseason. In addition to Paxton, the Yankees currently have Luis Severino, Masahiro Tanaka and CC Sabathia rounding out their rotation.

The team may choose to retain free agent J.A. Happ on a new deal, but the 36-year-old also has reported interest from several clubs, including the Phillies, Angels, Astros, Blue Jays and Brewers.

Dallas Keuchel and former Yankee Nathan Eovaldi are also top targets among free agent starters.
