  06/06/2023 • By RotoWire

  Montgomery signed a minor-league contract with the Dodgers on Tuesday, Alex Freedman with the Oklahoma City Dodgers reports. Montgomery will report to Triple-A, but it's unclear when he'll make his debut with Oklahoma City, Freedman notes. The left-hander struggled to a 6.72 ERA with Triple-A Syracuse last year, and he hasn't found much MLB success over the past few campaigns. He'll provide some organizational depth over the second half of the 2023 season.

  Montgomery joined the Mets on a minor-league contract Tuesday, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports. The 32-year-old lefty owns a 3.84 ERA in 541 career MLB innings, but it's been several years since he pitched at that level. He struggled to a 4.95 ERA in 2019 and then threw just 5.1 innings in 2020. He spent last season with the KBO's Samsung Lions but didn't fare well there, either, posting a 5.26 ERA and getting suspended 20 games for throwing a rosin bag at an umpire.
