Jordan Montgomery Will Undergo Tommy John Surgery

Arizona Diamondbacks left-handed pitcher Jordan Montgomery (elbow) is set to undergo Tommy John surgery. During camp, Montgomery logged just three innings of work and allowed five earned runs and held a 3:2 BB:K. During the early part of the offseason, Montgomery was dealing with a strain in his left index finger. However, with this new injury, fantasy managers should expect Montgomery to remain sidelined for the entire 2025 campaign and potentially most of the 2026 season as well. Last offseason, the Diamondbacks signed the southpaw after he won a World Series with the Texas Rangers. However, his debut season in the desert was underwhelming as he posted a high 6.23 ERA with a 1.65 WHIP across 117 innings of work. Montgomery was set to be deployed out of the bullpen in 2025. However, with him now sitting out, this could potentially open up a larger role for Ryne Nelson, who also fell short of his rotation bid.

Teams Showing Interest In Jordan Montgomery

Arizona Sports' John Gambadoro reports that there has been recent interest from a few teams in trading for Arizona Diamondbacks left-hander Jordan Montgomery. There could be even more interest from teams after Montgomery threw 2 2/3 scoreless innings in his Cactus League outing on Wednesday versus the division-rival Colorado Rockies. The New York Yankees come to mind as a team that might have serious interest in a reunion with Montgomery after injuries to Gerrit Cole (elbow), Luis Gil (lat) and Clarke Schmidt (shoulder). The 32-year-old southpaw is looking to bounce back after a rough first year in Arizona in 2024 in which he went 8-7 with a 6.23 ERA, 1.65 WHIP, 83 strikeouts and 44 walks in 117 innings over 25 outings (21 starts). If he earns one of the final rotation spots for the D-backs to start the season, his workload could be limited after missing the early portion of spring training with a finger strain.

Jordan Montgomery Stumbles In Spring Debut

Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Jordan Montgomery allowed two hits and five earned runs in his spring debut on Saturday. He was only able to tally one out before exiting the game. He served up two free passes and allowed a home run to Cincinnati Reds first baseman Christian Encarnacion-Strand. This was a disappointing showing for Montgomery as he is currently competing for a spot at the back of the Arizona rotation. During the early part of camp, the southpaw was dealing with a strained index finger which delayed his debut. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his progress during camp but it appears he will likely open the season in a long relief role. Last season, the 32-year-old posted a 6.23 ERA with a 1.65 WHIP in his Arizona debut. If he does open the campaign in a long relief role, he will only carry minimal value in NL-only formats.
