The Arizona Diamondbacks have made two key roster decisions, with Jordan Montgomery accepting his $22.5 million player option for 2025 and Randal Grichuk electing free agency. Montgomery's decision comes after a subpar season in which he missed spring training and struggled to find form. Grichuk, on the other hand, had a strong year as a right-handed bat against left-handed pitchers, posting an OPS+ of 150.

The Diamondbacks will now focus on the options they hold on third baseman Eugenio Suarez and right-hander Merrill Kelly. Joc Pederson also has a mutual option worth $14 million in 2025, which he is expected to test in free agency.
