The Arizona Diamondbacks have had quite the off-season. They have brought in players such as LHP Eduardo Rodriguez, 3B Eugenio Suarez, OF/DH Joc Pederson, and most recently LHP Jordan Montgomery.
Jordan Montgomery has signed a one year, $25 million contract with the Arizona Diamondbacks (report).
Jeff Passan was the first to report that the Diamondbacks were signing Jordan Montgomery to a contract. The contract details have been reported as a one year, $25 million contract with a vesting $25 million option for a second year. Per reports he needs to make 23 starts in 2025 in order to get the full $25 million and can opt out of the 2025 season if he makes 10 starts in 2024.
The Arizona Diamondbacks now have one of the best starting rotations in baseball.
After the Montgomery deal is made official the Diamondbacks will have a starting rotation consisting of Zac Gallen, Merrill Kelly, Eduardo Rodriguez, and Brandon Pfaadt. All together this depth along with top end talent makes them one of the best units in the league.
Jordan Montgomery last pitched in the World Series against the Arizona Diamondbacks
The last time Jordan Montgomery was on the mound was during the 2023 World Series when his Texas Rangers ultimately defeated the Diamondbacks in five games. Montgomery was on the hill for game two in which he pitched six innings, allowed nine hits, and four earned runs.
