Braden Montgomery to Begin Season at Double-A
Chicago White Sox top prospect Braden Montgomery will begin the 2026 regular season at Double-A. Montgomery is considered the team's No. 1 prospect on MLB.com and the No. 36 overall prospect in the sport. Montgomery joined the White Sox in the trade that sent Garrett Crochet to the Red Sox last offseason. He was initially the 12th overall pick in the 2024 class out of Texas A&M. Last summer, Montgomery spent most of his time at High-A before moving up to Double-A later in the second half. At High-A, the outfielder would hold a .260/.348/.445 line with eight home runs and five stolen bases. With Double-A (34 games), Montgomery would look quite comfortable, holding a .272/.364/.416 line but would only hit one round-tripper. If Montgomery can tap into his power early in the season, he should remain on track to join Triple-A later in the first half.
