Jordan Montgomery Staying In Arizona

Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Jordan Montgomery had his club option exercised for 2025 according to Mark Feinsand of MLB.com. The southpaw had a rough debut season in the desert as he posted a hefty 6.23 ERA and a 1.65 WHIP, which were both significantly lower compared to his 3.20 ERA and a 1.19 WHIP he held in the 2023 campaign. Under the hood, Montgomery held a 5.10 xERA and .290 xBA which were among the worst marks among qualified pitchers. He also generated strikeouts at a low 15.6% mark. Fantasy managers should expect the 31-year-old to remain in the Arizona rotation throughout all of next season but is no more than a late flier in drafts this offseason given his struggles this past summer.

Jordan Montgomery Headed To Bullpen

Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Jordan Montgomery will shift to the bullpen going forward. The D-Backs made Montgomery the odd man out with six healthy starters right now. The left-hander has been awful to the tune of a 6.44 ERA with a 67/36 K/BB ratio across 19 starts this season. Before this season, Montgomery had a solid track record over multiple seasons. The 2024 campaign is by far his worst of his professional career. The D-Backs will give the starting spot to Ryne Nelson who will take the mound against the Boston Red Sox on Friday. Nelson has posted quality starts in each of his last two outings, so he should be worth a look as a streaming option for Friday's slate.

Jordan Montgomery Returning To Start On Tuesday

Arizona Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo confirmed on Monday that left-hander Jordan Montgomery (knee) will return from the 15-day injured list for the middle game of the series against the Kansas City Royals at Kauffman Stadium on Tuesday. Montgomery has been working his way back since experiencing right-knee soreness on June 29, and he landed on the IL with inflammation in his right patellar tendon. After signing with the Snakes late, Montgomery has not been good, compiling a 6-5 record with a 6.44 ERA over 65 2/3 innings. Not only are the Royals a bad first matchup back from the IL for the 31-year-old southpaw, but he also didn't go on a minor-league rehab assignment. The former fourth-round pick of the New York Yankees out of South Carolina in 2014 has never been a big strikeout guy but currently has a career-low 15.1% K rate.

Jordan Montgomery Throws Sim Game, On Track To Return Next Week

Arizona Diamondbacks left-hander Jordan Montgomery (knee) threw a simulated game on Thursday that consisted of 56 pitches, according to manager Torey Lovullo, and he appears to be on track to return from the 15-day injured list next week when the team is in Kansas City for a series against the Royals. It remains to be seen what day exactly Montgomery will make his return to Arizona's starting rotation, but fantasy managers are probably going to want to avoid the struggling 31-year-old southpaw, especially if his first start off the IL comes against the upstart Royals. Montgomery has not been effective in the desert with a 6.44 ERA in his 13 starts in 2024 and has been out since late June with right-knee inflammation.

Jordan Montgomery Two Weeks Away From Rejoining The Rotation

Arizona Diamondbacks left-hander Jordan Montgomery (knee) is around 12 to 14 days away from returning to the team's starting rotation. Montgomery is likely to return in either the series against the Kansas City Royals or Pittsburgh Pirates after next week's All-Star break. Montgomery helped the Texas Rangers win a World Series championship last fall for the first time in franchise history, but he signed with the D-backs late this spring and just hasn't been right, going 6-5 with a bloated 6.44 ERA (4.44 FIP) and 1.67 WHIP with just 45 strikeouts and 23 walks in 65 2/3 innings over his first 13 starts. The 31-year-old southpaw threw a bullpen session on Tuesday and felt good, though, as he tries to recover from right-knee inflammation. With better health, fantasy managers in deeper leagues will be hoping that Montgomery can right the ship in the second half.

Merrill Kelly, Eduardo Rodriguez, Jordan Montgomery To Throw Bullpens

Arizona Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo said that starting pitchers Merrill Kelly (shoulder), Eduardo Rodriguez (shoulder) and Jordan Montgomery (knee) will all throw bullpen sessions on Tuesday. Kelly will be throwing off a mound for the first time since suffering a right-shoulder strain in April. The 35-year-old has the most fantasy appeal of the trio but may not be ready to rejoin Arizona's rotation until late August. E-Rod has yet to make his D-backs debut in 2024 after injuring his left shoulder in spring training. Montgomery is dealing with a right-knee injury and is eligible to come off the IL on Sunday. Depending on how he fares in his bullpen session, he could return before next week's All-Star break. However, the 31-year-old has been a disaster after getting a late start to the season.

Jordan Montgomery To Throw On Flat Ground On Saturday

Arizona Diamondbacks left-hander Jordan Montgomery (knee) will throw on flat ground on Saturday, according to manager Torey Lovullo. Montgomery still has some inflammation in his right knee, but Lovullo said the team is anticipating he'll be good enough to throw on Saturday. The 31-year-old southpaw could start throwing off a mound again soon if his throwing session goes well this weekend, but Montgomery won't rejoin Arizona's starting rotation until after the All-Star break in mid-July. After helping the Texas Rangers win their first-ever World Series championship last fall, Montgomery signed with Arizona late this spring and has been a disaster in his first 13 starts, posting a 6.44 ERA and 1.67 WHIP with 45 K's and 23 walks in 65 2/3 innings. He currently has a career-low 15.1% strikeout rate and has seen his walk rate increase from 4.9% in 2023 to 7.7%.

Jordan Montgomery Placed On Injured List

Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Jordan Montgomery (knee) has been placed on the 15-day injured list, retroactive to June 29. The 31-year-old needed some time off after a horrendous start to the season. Montgomery has posted a 6.44 ERA, 1.68 WHIP, and 45/23 K/BB across 13 starts. The D-Backs haven't offered a timetable for Montgomery's return to the mound. In a corresponding move, right-hander Gavin Hollowell has been recalled from Triple-A Reno. He's expected to head to the bullpen, so the D-Backs will need to fill Montgomery's spot in the rotation soon.

Jordan Montgomery Has A Tough Outing On Thursday

Arizona Diamondbacks left-hander Jordan Montgomery wasn't long for his start on Thursday against the visiting Minnesota Twins, lasting just 2 2/3 innings and being pulled after giving up eight runs (four earned) on nine hits while walking one and striking out only one to drop to 6-5 in his first season in Arizona. The 31-year-old southpaw didn't get much help from his defense in this one and he was also a bit unfortunate with the Twins eeking out three infield singles. He gave up only two extra-base hits. The final line doesn't look great, and Montgomery came into this one with just five earned runs allowed in his previous three starts combined. The former fourth-round pick by the New York Yankees in 2014 out of South Carolina has struggled overall in 2024, though, and things won't get any easier with his next outing scheduled to come against the first-place Los Angeles Dodgers next week.

Jordan Montgomery Gets Roughed Up For Six Runs Friday

Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Jordan Montgomery (3-3) was roughed up for the loss Friday night, giving up six runs while allowing nine hits and three walks with four strikeouts in a 10-9 slugfest against the New York Mets. The Diamondbacks jumped on the board early with three runs of support for Montgomery, but unfortunately, the southpaw gave it all right back and more, allowing four runs in the bottom of the first inning. After allowing just four runs in 13 1/3 innings in April, the lefty has allowed 23 earned runs in 31 1/3 innings in May. Not only that, he has 15 walks in 44 innings pitched, which means he's on a full-season pace of almost doubling his walk total from last season. It's been a tough go, to say the least for the new Diamondbacks pitcher, who will be looking to lower his 5.48 ERA on Wednesday against a San Francisco Giants team that he allowed one run in six innings against in his first start of the season.
