Around baseball
- The Diamondbacks got Jordan Montgomery signed at a bargain price. He’ll make $25M for 2024, and the same in 2025 if he starts more than 10 games this season. I did not understand why people expected him to get so much more money than Eduardo Rodriguez—and it ended up that one team said “Why not both?”
- The Orioles signed Tony Kemp, for some unknown reason.
- The Rockies signed Ezequiel Tovar to a 7-year extension worth $84M. Imagine how much Nolan Jones would cost right now.
