If you look for a good condition old stock XT M737 or LX M563 you should have a perfect match for your ring sizes, a small/short enough cage to not hit the stays and enough range for the triple. I am currently using this setup with a 110/74 Ritchey Triple that I run with a Phil ~119mm BB. But you may not need a new FD anyway.
Is your crankset the Ritchey Logic 94/58 Compact? If so, that is meant to be run with a 110-113mm BB so if that is the case my concern is you are out of range due to the extra length which will also effect chainline. My recommend is to measure and see if a 113mm BB will work (need 5mm vs what you have now to tire) and go to that. Perfect chainline. Great Q-factor. Prefect.
