Starting pitcher Jordan Montgomery remains on the Philadelphia Phillies' radar with Opening Day quickly approaching, according to USA Today's Bob Nightengale.
Nightengale reported the Phillies "are at least internally discussing the possibility" and have yet to make a firm decision one way or the other.
This comes days after the New York Post's Jon Heyman reported Montgomery's representatives and the New York Yankees "are back in contact" but still some distance apart in negotiations.
After Blake Snell signed only a two-year deal with the San Francisco Giants, the Phillies and others might have felt more emboldened about playing hardball with Montgomery.
