MLB Rumors: Jordan Montgomery, Diamondbacks Agree to Contract in Free Agency

After helping the Texas Rangers win the first World Series in franchise history, Jordan Montgomery's long free agency has finally come to an end.

Per ESPN's Jeff Passan, Montgomery agreed to a deal with the Arizona Diamondbacks on Tuesday.

Montgomery joined the Rangers in a midseason trade with the St. Louis Cardinals. He had the best stretch of his career after the move with a 2.79 ERA in 11 starts.

The 31-year-old was just as good in the playoffs with a 2.90 ERA in six appearances. He was the Rangers' Game 1 starter in the AL Wild Card series against the Tampa Bay Rays and ALCS against the Houston Astros.
