(Photo by Christian Petersen/Getty Images)   Arizona Diamondbacks left-hander Jordan Montgomery is trying to leave behind a tough winter and spring. After posting a 3.20 ERA with a top starter’s workload and having won the World Series with the Texas Rangers, he was expected to get a nice multi-year contract. Experts foresaw something in the neighborhood of five years and $100+ million for him. Yet, his agent Scott Boras misread the market and he had to settle for a one-year, $25 million pact with the D-Backs, with a vesting option for 2025. Montgomery has since fired Boras and is now wit ..read more

It’s always fun to learn weird trends and rare occurrences in major league games. Take, for example, the Arizona Diamondbacks. The D-Backs are a very solid team, fresh off making the World Series last year. This time, they are off to a 6-7 start so far, but they have remained very competitive in the middle of some injuries and slow starts. The first inning in particular has been very productive for their offense. It seems, however, that they have forgotten how to s ..read more

(Photo by Jamie Squire/Getty Images)   Jordan Montgomery was one of the best free-agent pitchers heading into the offseason. Most analysts and publications had him projected for at least a five-year deal in excess of $100 million. After the season of his life, which ended with a 3.20 ERA and a World Series title with the Texas Rangers, he was bound to make life-changing money over a significant period of time. Instead, he was the last of the truly great pitchers to sign, when he put pen to paper on a one-year, $25 million pact with the Arizona Diamondbacks. well into spring training. It a ..read more

(Photo by Zac BonDurant/Getty Images)   The Arizona Diamondbacks made a statement on Thursday. Everybody is talking about the Los Angeles Dodgers and the San Francisco Giants because of their winter spending sprees, but the D-Backs are the reigning National League champions and showed why on Opening Day. They obliterated the Colorado Rockies, 16-1, in Phoenix and made history in the process. 14 of the 16 runs were scored in just one inning, the third. That, as you can probably imagine, is one for the record books. “HISSSSSTORY. The @Dbacks 14-run inning is the third-most all time in ..read more

(Photo by Eric Espada/Getty Images)   The Arizona Diamondbacks were determined to add to their rotation this offseason. They realized, during the World Series, that they were a pitcher or two short of mounting a real World Series-winning powerhouse. They went out and brought in Eduardo Rodriguez on a multi-year deal. However, the lefty went down with an injury just before the start of the season. Now, the team recognized that they couldn’t enter the 2024 campaign without another top arm in the rotation. As a result, they announced the signing of left-hander Jordan Montgomery on Tuesday, o ..read more

(Photo by Eric Espada/Getty Images)   MLB free agency is over for the vast majority of teams. Most of them are already preparing their Opening Day rosters, as their season will officially start on March 28. However, there are still unsigned stars in the market, most notably starting pitcher Jordan Montgomery. The talented left-hander was a key cog for the Texas Rangers in their World Series run, but hasn’t been able to get the contract he desires. Multiple MLB teams have asked about him, but according to insider Jim Bowden, the ones who competed against the Rangers in the Fall Classic can ..read more

(Photo by Steph Chambers/Getty Images)   Baseball is often all about family. A young kid who has fallen in love with the game usually inherited that love from a family member. In any case, there is, almost always, family involved. Parents are the ones signing their kids up for youth league tournaments, little league, then high school and college. They are the ones driving their kids to games, and showing their support by sitting in the stands and, sometimes, offering a word of advice. That’s the dream of every little kid who loves baseball: to enjoy the game and the time with the family ..read more

(Photo by Norm Hall/Getty Images)   The Arizona Diamondbacks have had a solid offseason, adding a much-needed star pitcher in Eduardo Rodriguez and a replacement for Evan Longoria in Eugenio Suarez. They want more, though. According to MLB insider Buster Olney, they have identified power hitter Joc Pederson as their next target. There is a reason behind their interest, though: he mashes right-handed pitching, and there is a lot of quality right-handed pitching in the NL West. “About the D-Backs’ interest in Joc Pederson, who has historically done his damage vs. right-handers, it’s worth n ..read more

(Photo by Justin Edmonds/Getty Images)   The Arizona Diamondbacks shocked the MLB world with their run to the World Series last year. Entering the playoffs as a Wild Card team, no one thought the Diamondbacks could make a run. But, that is exactly what they did through the NL. The Diamondbacks beat the Milwaukee Brewers, Los Angeles Dodgers, and Philadelphia Phillies en route to the World Series. But, they came up just short after losing to the Texas Rangers in five games. Still, the future of the Diamondbacks looks strong with plenty of young talent on their roster. Yet there are some co ..read more

(Photo by Eric Espada/Getty Images)   The Arizona Diamondbacks, despite reaching the 2023 World Series, have had a busy offseason. Far from being content with their 2023 progress, they want to take things to the next level in 2024 and win it all. They know that, to do that, they need to invest. They have done just that, bringing in star pitcher Eduardo Rodriguez, power-hitting third baseman Eugenio Suarez, and retained outfielder Lourdes Gurriel Jr. They also brought in backup catcher Tucker Barnhart. Their work, however, is not done. The front office, led by general manager Mike Hazen, i ..read more
