Bruce Douglas Bochy, manager of the Texas Rangers, just signed his resignation letter after a secret was revealed against him.
Jordan Montgomery is anticipated to sign, as stated in the article.
Jordan Montgomery could sign a contract before Opening Day, given the limited time left.
In a Sunday radio broadcast on SiriusXM Radio, Jim Bowden of MLB Network provided an update on the situation concerning free agent left-hander Montgomery. Montgomery is anticipated to sign a contract this week, he added.
Montgomery has a market, according to Bowden. “He will most likely sign this coming week.” It is growing more and more vicious.
Montgomery is currently receiving two “long-term offers,” according to Bowden, although he did not say which teams were making the offers.
In the previous season, the 31-year-old Montgomery ended 10-11 with a 3.20 ERA and 1.19 WHIP. While other holdouts, Blake Snell, JD Martinez, Cody Bellinger, and Matt Chapman, all accepted shorter-term contracts, he has persisted in waiting for a deal. He played with the Texas Rangers, who won the World Series.
Montgomery seems to have the option to select from several long-term offers, indicating that his protracted wait will be valuable.
Given that we just revealed that Montgomery was once again in talks with at least one major club, it is also easy to speculate as to which teams might be involved.
