Anyway, if Montgomery and the Yankees aren’t each other’s first choices, they may have little choice now.
Sources say they are back in contact. A gap exists, but at least they’re talking.Montgomery’s camp compares him to Aaron Nola, who got $172 million over seven years. And while there’s a decent case to be made — Montgomery has actually been better since 2021, and was even better in the postseason — the market loved Nola more. And Phillies owner John Middleton, who might be baseball’s best owner, wasn’t about to let Nola go.
