The injury bug hit the Rockies hard this year, including at the minor-league level. Colorado farm director Chris Forbes provided The Post with updates on a number of renowned prospects who are currently dealing with injuries.
OF Benny Montgomery
Montgomery, Colorado’s No. 6 overall prospect per MLB Pipeline, was carted off the field on Sunday in Eugene after colliding in the outfield with High-A Spokane teammate Juan Guerrero. The players ran into each other at full speed and knocked knees.
Forbes said that “fingers are crossed that it’s not serious,” and that Montgomery only suffered a contusion.
