Rest-of-Season Projections
2024 Fantasy Outlook
Montas collected a 6.35 ERA in eight regular-season starts for the Yankees in 2022 after being acquired from the Athletics via trade before going down with a shoulder injury. The right-hander did make it back for one playoff appearance but wound up needing surgery on the shoulder in February. It was expected to be a season-ending operation, but Montas worked his way back for one late-season relief appearance, providing some hope that he's past the shoulder problems. At his best, Montas is a hard thrower capable of piling up strikeouts with his nasty splitter. His velocity was solid but down a bit in his one 2023 appearance, and it's fair to wonder whether he'll ever regain his pre-op stuff. Montas' workload figures to be limited even if he stays healthy given that he's basically coming off a lost season. He currently remains a free agent. Read Past Outlooks
Hurls six-inning gem
Montas (7-10) picked up the win over the Giants on Thursday, allowing two hits and two walks over six scoreless frames while striking out eight.
ANALYSIS
Montas stifled San Francisco's lineup, allowing just two batters to reach second base during his six innings on the mound. The right-hander generated 19 swings and misses en route to posting eight or more strikeouts for only the third time this season. It also marked Montas' second consecutive quality start to open the month, and he now carries a very strong 18:5 K:BB September to go along with a 2.25 ERA.

Montas seemed likely to be traded by Oakland during spring training, but the team instead held onto him until the trade deadline. The right-hander pitched well the A's with a 3.18 ERA and 109:28 K:BB across 104.2 innings before being shipped to the Yankees, but he was unable to continue that success after the trade. His strikeout rate cratered eight percentage points to 17.8 percent with New York while opposing hitters batted .279 against him. He was relegated to the bullpen during the playoffs and made only one appearance. Montas has illustrated he has the stuff of a front-line starter but has been unable to consistently provide that production year-to-year, and he's now entering his final season of arbitration eligibility in dire need of a bounceback.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Pitching well for Milwaukee
Montas has a 3-2 record with a 3.40 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and 50:18 K:BB in 45 innings across eight starts since being acquired by the Brewers.
ANALYSIS
The veteran right-hander posted a 5.01 ERA in his first 19 outings of the season with the Reds, but he's been an effective rotation piece since being moved at the trade deadline. Montas hasn't made drastic changes to his pitch mix, but he is relying a bit less on his four-seam fastball while utilizing his sinker more often. His 10.0 K/9 with Milwaukee would be his best in a season since he produced that same number during his final full year with Oakland in 2021.
