Simplest explanation is that he sucks.

So they are sending Montgomery down to AAA to start the year. I do not understand that at all. With where things stand with this team, should you not get him in the lineup everyday and see what you have for the future? What is he going to gain at AAA this year that he could not get with the Big league club

Gotta make room for Tim Anderson’s return

Pretty fair to just write the kid off at this point. That sucks. I had hopes for him.

How can you write him off without at least a few months on the Big league roster?

Writing people off is easy.

It’s so much easier than holding out hope for a guy. You just kind of say “this guy sucks,” and more often than not, you’re right!

Well if that is the standard they should just shut the team down and find something else to do! :lol:

Isn’t that what they’ve been doing?

You don't even know what a write off is.

He's never really hit in the upper levels of the minors. Therefore, I doubt he's going to hit on the major league level. I'm surprised he's still a ranked prospect.

It’s not like I’m just quitting on him because of this one thing.

He’s been on thin ice for a very long time, being unable to break camp with the big league squad with truly zero competition is really just the last straw more than anything. How much longer can I continue to believe in a guy just off a crazy seventeen game stretch in A+ ball in 2023? He’s not really done much since.

I'm waiting for a similar "out for season" announcement on Drew Thorpe.


We're getting closer:
