What to expect from Jordan Montgomery in 2023
The Cardinals rotation carries some significant question marks heading into the 2023 season. Jack Flaherty’s health is a constant question mark, Adam Wainwright is 41 and Matthew Liberatore simply was not good last year. Miles Mikolas is coming off of a great 2022 season but that was on the heels of 2 below average seasons and the metrics indicate Mikolas was lucky in last year. As a result, a lot of weight will be placed on Jordan Montgomery’s shoulder as the southpaw very well might have to be the number one or two starter in 2023. Monty pitched well when he came to the Cardinals pitching to a 3.11 ERA with 61 strikeouts over 63 ⅔ innings. Down below we are going to look into what exactly the former Yankee will offer in 2023 and whether or not he is prepared to handle the burden that might be placed upon him.
