I'd have to think if the #Dbacks are truly interested in Paul Goldschmidt, it would be to partially replace Grichuk and Walker. Part-time DH, part-time 1B.
Goldy hit .295 v. LHP in '24, .65 points higher than v. RHP.
His OPS was .839 v. LHP, compared to .675 v. RHP

The DBacks should "just say NO" to any more castoffs from St. Louis. Goldschmidt is toast, Arenado is toast, and we see how Montgomery performed (he was toast in St. Louis a couple of seasons ago, and got lucky in Texas). Montgomery should be traded (although his value is at an all time low) or we'll suffer through his 5+ or 6+ ERA as a SP in 2025. In the business world, it is called "sunk cost". Yes, the DBacks GM way overpaid for Montgomery. He needs to suck it up, trade the bum, and take the loss.

Monty just needs to be long relief/fill-in starter...and that's it. It should NOT be part of the regular 5 man rotation.

Per Jeff, the Diamondbacks did give Christian Walker a one-year, $21.05 million qualifying offer. No surprises there.He will likely decline it and look for a multi-year deal in free agency.

@DbacksStatsInfo

The Dbacks have officially submitted the Qualifying Offer ($21.05M) to 1B Christian Walker.Arizona will recoup a 1st round draft pick if Walker signs with another team.
@fangraphs placed Walker as their 18th best FA this winter, and project (roughly) a 3-year deal worth $50M.
