Red Sox Could Get Something Done With Jordan Montgomery
10 months agoThe Boston Red Sox remain in play to sign free-agent left-hander Jordan Montgomery, as one National League executive said on Sunday that "we hear the Red Sox and Scott Boras had a good meeting recently and may get some deal eventually done on Jordan Montgomery." The 31-year-old southpaw hasn't found a team that is willing to meet his contractual demands yet this offseason after helping the Texas Rangers win the World Series last fall. In 32 combined starts with Texas and the St. Louis Cardinals in 2023, he went 10-11 with a 3.20 ERA and 1.19 WHIP with 48 walks and a career-high 166 strikeouts in 188 2/3 regular-season innings. Boston could definitely use the rotation help, but a move to the demanding American League East wouldn't be the best landing spot for Montgomery, who lacks true upside in fantasy due to his lack of swing-and-miss stuff.
