Surveying the Diamondbacks landscape after the Jordan Montgomery signing

Surveying the Diamondbacks landscape after the Jordan Montgomery signing

Photo by Harry How/ That was unexpected. There had been rumblings about the D-backs being among the suitors for the services of Jordan Montgomery. But with the team payroll already at an all-time high, these seemed to be implausible rumors. I mean, MLB Trade Rumors had him the #6 free agent on the market this winter, projecting a six year, $150 million contract for the Scott Boras client. But like other Boras clients, the market was badly misjudged by the agent, and the pitcher remained unemployed. Now, two days before Opening Day, Montgomery has become the last...

Summary: This season, my prediction is that the Diamondbacks win 86 games, with 761 runs scored and 734 runs allowed. Details follow: Introduction. Starting Point. With the exception of a few acquired players who are upgrades at their position, this season will feature the same players as last season. The most significant upgrades will be at third base, designated hitter, and the rotation. My Approach....

I’m not going to have any Shohei Ohtani links today. I think we’ve covered that story well enough in other pieces on this site. If you have read something that you really think the rest of us should take a look at, feel free to share it with us in the comments.

Montgomery to D-Backs, per reports

Photo by Harry How/ Jordan Montgomery is reported heading to Arizona Jordan Montgomery, a hero of the Texas Rangers playoff run and key part of the Rangers winning their first title, is joining the team Texas vanquished, the Arizona Diamondbacks, per reports. The 31 year old Montgomery was acquired by the Rangers from the St. Louis Cardinals at the trade deadline in 2023 in a deal that saw Thomas Saggese and TK Roby go to St. Louis. He was terrific down the stretch and in the playoffs, and there appeared to be mutual interest in Montgomery returning to Texas for 2024...

Yanks pitching caught between a rock and a hard place

Photo by Cooper Neill/MLB Photos via The Yankees opted out of the pitching market this offseason, and it could come back to haunt them. On Tuesday night, the news came out that Jordan Montgomery would be signing with the Arizona Diamondbacks, joining them on a surely-disappointing (for him) one-year, $25 million deal with a vesting option based on his number of 2023 starts. With that, this offseason’s solid and long drawn out pitching market closes, save for a few supplementary players still out there. The Yankees, who will be without reigning American League Cy...
