Jordan Montgomery Holds Steady in Short Outing
by Jesse Garcia | Diamondbacks Correspondent | Thu, Sep 12th 7:49am EDT
Jordan Montgomery delivered a concise but effective performance, allowing no earned runs on just two hits and one walk over three innings in Wednesday's 14-4 victory over the Rangers.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite not recording any strikeouts, Montgomery's outing was a step in the right direction, especially considering his struggles this season, evidenced by a bloated 6.25 ERA and 1.64 WHIP. His inability to miss bats consistently, with a modest 6.1 K/9 rate, remains a concern for fantasy managers looking for strikeout upside. However, his performance in this game could serve as a building block towards more stable outings. Fantasy managers should keep expectations in check, as his season-long metrics suggest limited upside, but this outing might at least hint at some potential for improvement.
