Colson Montgomery Promoted to the Major Leagues
Colson Montgomery to the major leagues. Montgomery was selected with the 22nd overall pick in the 2021 MLB Draft out of Southridge HS. The 23-year-old spent the entire 2024 campaign with Triple-A Charlotte but struggled as he posted an underwhelming .214/.329/.381 line with 21 doubles, 18 home runs, and a 164:69 K:BB. However, Montgomery has begun to turn the corner at the top level this season and is being rewarded with a promotion. Over his last 17 games with Charlotte, Montgomery has been showcasing high power upside, posting a .284/.347/.657 line with three doubles, six home runs, and 17 RBI. Fantasy managers should expect Montgomery to see a full-time role at shortstop, which will likely shift Chase Meidroth to the hot corner or the keystone. As a result, Josh Rojas and Lenyn Sosa could be in danger of losing playing time. Given Montgomery's power upside, he is worth adding in all 12+ team leagues.
