I know we’re all licking our wounds over losing Yoshinobu Yamamoto to the Dodgers, but let’s shift our focus to Frankie Montas.
Yes, he still exists! And though a Jordan Montgomery reunion might be a “sexier” target, Montas deserves a look too. How quickly we forget in his lone appearance for the Yankees in 2023, he pitched 1.1 scoreless innings!
But more importantly, even though he came to New York injured, Frankie Montas was in fact once the undeniable ace in Oakland. He had a 3.70 ERA with the A’s and led the AL in starts in 2021.
