Was starting pitcher Frankie Montas healthy or not when the Yankees acquired him at the trade deadline last summer? The hurler recently said he wasn’t. General manager Brian Cashman responded by saying all signs pointed to him being healthy.
Then, of course, the poor performance began. That was followed by a stint on the injured list before undergoing surgery in February. The trade has obviously been a bust for the Yankees. It already looked terrible at the conclusion of 2022. But now that Montas’ walk year will be abbreviated, it looks even worse.
Cashman knows this.
