Frankie Montas

Featured Replies

Yahoo article

The 26-year-old Montas has had varied success during parts of two seasons with the A's but was dominant this spring after adding a splitter to complement a 97 mph fastball and slider. The new pitch produced immediate results as Montas went 2-0 with a 0.56 ERA in five games with 16 strikeouts and five walks over 16 innings.

Who traded him to the Dodgers? The ghost of Bill Veeck?

Looks the the Sox dodged a bullet to me, look at this fuckin JACK he gives up here, velo way down too...

 

I'm pretty sure, based on his Spring, Montas is going to be a HOFer.

Montas... this year's Jharel Cotton for the A's. Great spring, but won't mean much when the game starts and he can't throw strikes. Ironically they were both in the Rich Hill deal.

I'll have this bookmarked so I can bump it when he performs. You'll be eating some fresh crow.

Oh noooo. Please don't. 

It always sucks when a guy is about to start his career and gets derailed by injury after injury. I hope he can make something out of this year.

Not a bad first outing for Frankie

I'm shocked the red Sox havent traded sale for him yet to be honest.

Crazy that Montas only has a little more than a year of service time with 100 innings across 4 years and 3 seasons under his belt. I'm guessing someone lucked out with him getting hurt just after a demotion.

I think that was the dodgers with the rib injury? Because he would have been in majors with white sox the year prior to trade.

He's having a good stretch for sure:

Frankie Montas racked up a career-high 10 strikeouts over 8 2/3 innings of two-run baseball in Friday's victory over the Tigers.

Montas scattered just four hits on the night and didn't walk a batter. He came within one out of his first career complete game, but A's skipper Bob Melvin had to get him after Miguel Cabreras' two-out RBI double in the ninth. The 26-year-old hurler now sits at 5-2 on the season with a stellar 2.67 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and 52/11 K/BB ratio over 54 innings. He'll look to keep the good times rolling when he does battle against the Indians in Cleveland on Wednesday.

Maybe this was helping his resurgence this season... 

So failing in another org wasn’t enough, let’s see if steroids are enough for me to never hear about this dude as a mistake ever again. 

Told you guys he was looking spectacular. This just confirms my early season assessment and scouting acumen.
