Braden Montgomery is the top position player prospect in the Chicago White Sox organization, and he just got one step closer to the big leagues.
Montgomery is being promoted to Double-A Birmingham this week after performing well in Winston-Salem over the past few months.
2025 is Montgomery's first professional season. He was the 12th overall pick by the Boston Red Sox in the 2024 MLB Draft, but did not play in the minor leagues after signing due to a broken ankle.
The White Sox acquired Montgomery in the Garrett Crochet blockbuster trade, and started him in Low-A Kannapolis due to his lack of experience.
