Braden Montgomery Fantasy Stats

Chicago White Sox outfield prospect Braden Montgomery (foot) was placed on Double-A Birmingham's 7-day injured list on Monday. Chicago's top-ranked prospect was hit by a pitch in the second inning of Saturday's contest, resulting in a small fracture in his right foot. The injury will end what was otherwise a good season for the 2024 first-rounder, who began at Single-A and earned two promotions to get to Birmingham. In all, the 22-year-old slashed .270/.360/.444 with 12 home runs and 14 steals in 121 games played. The switch-hitter is still expected to participate in the Arizona Fall League (AFL). If he continues to progress, he should see Triple-A next year and could even see a late season debut in the majors. With solid hit and run tools along with some plus power, he's the type of prospect dynasty managers should be stashing away.

Chicago White Sox outfield prospect Braden Montgomery went 2-for-4 with a walk, a pair of doubles, two RBI, and three runs scored on Tuesday for Double-A Birmingham. It was the second straight multi-hit game for Chicago's top-ranked prospect, now slashing .260/.327/.380 through 13 games for the Barons, and slashing .268/.354/.445 with 12 home runs and 13 steals on the year. The switch-hitter should get to Triple-A next year and will be knocking on the door to the majors. With the well-rounded toolset he possesses, there is certainly some fantasy appeal that the 22-year-old could bring to the table whenever he arrives.

Chicago White Sox outfield prospect Braden Montgomery went 2-for-4 with a long ball during his contest against Double-A Rocket City on Friday evening. This was only his third game at the Double-A level, but he wasted little time to his first career home run. During his first three games with Double-A Birmingham, Montgomery went 2-for-13 with a stolen base and a 9:1 K:BB. Earlier in the season, the former 12th overall pick in last year's MLB Draft spent 69 games with High-A. During this stint, Montgomery posted a solid .260/.348/.445 slash line with 17 doubles, eight home runs, five stolen bases, and a 70:32 K:BB. Fantasy managers should expect Montgomery to spend the remainder of the second half at Double-A. He is in play to reach the majors later next season.

Chicago White Sox outfielder Braden Montgomery was promoted to Double-A Birmingham on Sunday. This didn't take long as Montgomery earned a promotion from Single-A in less than one season of pro ball. Montgomery slashed .269/.358/.455 with 11 home runs, 57 RBI, and 11 stolen bases in 87 games in Single-A this season. Montgomery was a first-round pick of the Boston Red Sox from 2024. He was traded to the White Sox in that deal that sent Garrett Crochet to Boston. The 22-year-old won't be ready for the MLB this season, but a promotion to The Show in 2026 shouldn't be out of the question.

Chicago White Sox outfield prospect Braden Montgomery went 2-for-5 with a home run and three RBI during their contest against High-A Greenville on Wednesday evening. This was a nice breakout game for Montgomery, as he was in a slump throughout most of the past week. From June 27 through July 6, Montgomery went just 2-for-31 at the dish with one extra-base hit. However, he has now tallied at least one hit in each of his last two games and appears to be turning the corner. Montgomery joined the White Sox organization with the 12th overall pick in last year's MLB Draft. After spending just 18 games with Low-A at the start of the season, the White Sox promoted Montgomery to High-A. Through his first 50 games with High-A, Montgomery has been quite productive, posting a .251/.331/.439 slash line with 14 doubles and eight home runs. If he continues to find his footing, he could be in the mix to open the 2026 season with Double-A.

Chicago White Sox outfield prospect Braden Montgomery went 2-for-4 with an RBI and a stolen base on Wednesday for High-A Winston-Salem. It's his third multi-hit effort in his last four contests, and he is 20-for-57 (.351) over his last 21 games, including two doubles, two triples, and three home runs. For the season, the 2024 first-rounder is slashing .280/.359/.480 with 10 home runs and nine steals between Single-A and High-A. While his walk rate at High-A has dropped more than two percentage points, it is still above average at 9.4 percent, and his strikeout rate has improved almost two percentage points, sitting at a slightly better than average 20.7 percent. With other 2024 first-rounders getting moved along quickly, some even in the big leagues already, it wouldn't be surprising to see Montgomery progress to Double-A before long. The 22-year-old has the likes of aging veterans Mike Tauchman and Michael A. Taylor in front of him at the big league level, so a 2026 debut is possible, especially with the 60-grade power and some strikeout concerns presumably behind him.

Chicago White Sox outfield prospect Braden Montgomery got back on track over the weekend, going 6-for-9 with a pair of doubles, three RBI, and three runs scored in two games for High-A Winston-Salem. The performance ended a 3-for-41 (.073) skid that the switch-hitter was on. After initially showing well in his first taste of High-A pitching, hitting six doubles and four home runs in his first 14 games at that level, the 2024 first-rounder subsequently cooled off and has yet to hit another home run, with the last one coming on May 14. Still, producing a better-than-average 20.9 percent strikeout rate with an 11.1 percent walk rate is an encouraging sign for Chicago's fourth-ranked prospect. So long as he continues to hit, he should be in the mix for a look at Double-A later this season, though it may be 2027 when we finally see him in the big leagues on a regular basis.

Chicago White Sox outfield prospect Braden Montgomery needed just 18 games at Single-A earlier this season before earning a promotion to High-A at the end of April. Instead of withering in the face of stiffer competition, it has been quite the opposite. After recording a .304/.393/.493 slash line with three home runs, a 22.6 percent K%, and an 11.9 percent BB% in 18 games at Single-A, the 2024 first-rounder is slashing .388/.466/.755 with four home runs, a 19.0 percent K%, and a 12.1 percent BB% in 14 games at High-A. Chicago's fourth-ranked prospect's projected power appears to be coming through, but without the anticipated strikeout issues. Dynasty managers will want to see how the rest of the year plays out, but at this rate, he could make a case for another promotion to Double-A later in the campaign. With seven steals thus far, the switch-hitter could be an eventual multi-category producer for fantasy.

Chicago White Sox outfield prospect Braden Montgomery went 2-for-4 with two home runs during their contest on Tuesday against High-A Bowling Green. The 22-year-old opened the campaign at Low-A but needed just 18 games to get the call to High-A. During his first seven games at High-A, the No. 5-ranked prospect in the White Sox system has posted an impressive .360/.467/.760 slash line with four doubles and a 7:4 K:BB. Earlier in the summer, Montgomery made his professional debut with Low-A Kannapolis and held a .304/.393/.493 slash line with three long balls. The White Sox drafted Montgomery with the 12th overall pick in last year's MLB Draft. Given his steady progression, Montgomery could be in the mix to reach Double-A in the second half of the campaign.

Chicago White Sox outfield prospect Braden Montgomery is being promoted to High-A Winston-Salem. The White Sox selected Montgomery with the 12th pick in last year's draft, and he is already progressing through the White Sox system fairly quickly. The Texas A&M product opened the 2025 season with Low-A Kannapolis and needed just 18 games to prove he was ready for the next level. Across this brief stint, Montgomery held a .304/.393/.493 slash line with four doubles and three home runs. The young outfielder tallied 19 RBI, swiped six bags, and held a 19:10 K:BB. The 22-year-old is currently considered the No. 5-ranked prospect in the system and the No. 52 overall in the sport, according to MLB Pipeline. Fantasy managers should expect Montgomery to contend for a Double-A promotion later this season if he continues this impressive pace with High-A.
