Jordan Montgomery Throws Sim Game, On Track To Return Next Week
3 months agoArizona Diamondbacks left-hander Jordan Montgomery (knee) threw a simulated game on Thursday that consisted of 56 pitches, according to manager Torey Lovullo, and he appears to be on track to return from the 15-day injured list next week when the team is in Kansas City for a series against the Royals. It remains to be seen what day exactly Montgomery will make his return to Arizona's starting rotation, but fantasy managers are probably going to want to avoid the struggling 31-year-old southpaw, especially if his first start off the IL comes against the upstart Royals. Montgomery has not been effective in the desert with a 6.44 ERA in his 13 starts in 2024 and has been out since late June with right-knee inflammation.
