Here’s the full tweet
The finger pointing has begun:
In the aftermath of missing the postseason, Arizona Diamondbacks owner Ken Kendrick blasts the signing of starter Jordan Montgomery to a two-year, $47.5 million contract, blaming himself for making the recommendation to the front office late in spring training.
He told @BurnsAndGambo: « Looking back, in hindsight, a horrible decision to have invested that money in a guy that performed as poorly as he did. It was or biggest mistake this season from a talent standpoint. And I’m the perpetrator of that. »
Kendrick obviously is hoping that Montgomery (6.23 ERA) does not exercise his $22.5 million player option in 2025.
Not a great look. Hopefully monty ops in just out of pure spite
is this an extension of what was said previously, or is he doubling down?
Further tanking the value of a guy you want to opt out is always a good idea.
He is not lying. He is just an asshole
Crazy thing to say about a guy who is almost certainly opting in for another year.
I don’t think many FAs will be signing in AZ this coming offseason
