Texas had two "legitimate aces" last year, deGrom and Scherzer, but the guys who led them to the title were Eovaldi and Montgomery.
Plus Montgomery was one of the best dozen starters in 2023 according to both fWAR and bWAR.
Why do we or any team need a "legitimate ace"?How the hell are there 156 people who think this off season has gone better than I do?
It's been a halfway decent off season. I like most of the moves. Depending on the details of a Montgomery contract, I'll probably like it.
But we need a legitimate ace and Montgomery isn't it.
