He was a part of the World Series-winning Texas Rangers team.
Montgomery appears to be able to choose from a number of long-term offers, suggesting that his prolonged wait will be worthwhile.
It’s also simple to guess which teams might be involved, since we recently reported that Montgomery was once again in talks with at least one major club.
