Things didn&#8217;t work out, though. Montgomery decided against accepting Boston&#8217;s offer and landed a one-year deal with the Arizona Diamondbacks with an option for 2025.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_btqji5tfd\" data-uw-rm-sr=\"\">Although he struggled and the Diamondbacks have made it known that they don&#8217;t want him, Montgomery likely will pick up the $22.5 million option because he wouldn&#8217;t get more in free agency after a bad season.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_67jk62vii\">He likely will pick up the option, but that doesn&#8217;t mean that he will play in Arizona in 2025. Bleacher Report&#8217;s Zachary Rymer called him the Diamondbacks&#8217;\u00a0&#8220;most likely&#8221; trade candidate.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_qjyviql7b\" data-uw-rm-sr=\"\">&#8220;The D-backs&#8217; $25 million investment in Montgomery yielded a 6.23 ERA this season, so one can hardly blame Kendrick for his saltiness,&#8221; Rymer said. &#8220;But if the lefty exercises (as he likely will) his $22.5 million option for 2025, the Snakes will have a dilemma on their hands.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_85b7h1qe7\">&#8220;Rather than keeping the 31-year-old, the best thing for everyone would be a trade that would give him a fresh start elsewhere. The D-backs would presumably have to eat some of his 2025 salary to facilitate a deal, but likely not the entire sum.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_evx3dh9nl\">If he becomes available, will the Red Sox circle back and pursue him? It would make sense. He had a bad year in 2024 after signing late. But he had an ERA below 4.00 in each of the three seasons leading up to 2024. Boston needs a lefty. Montgomery could be that guy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Will the Red Sox pull off a trade?
