July 12, 20214 yr Was hoping to add a hs SS in Howard last year, but here we are with Montgomery. Will be interesting to follow. Been a while since we picked this low.
July 12, 20214 yr I know nothing here other than reading the profile, but a 19 year old playing Midwestern high school ball doesn't excite me.

July 12, 20214 yr Kiley McDaniel has him in the 13th best draft prospect if that makes any of you feel better

July 12, 20214 yr All time leading scorer for his HS basketball team, starting QB on his football team, and now a 1st round draft pick.

He'll be 20 before next season starts. They basically took a college player again without the benefit of playing college competition. He better be underslot allowing us to take a first round talent in the 2nd round. Otherwise it's bad value. Edited July 12, 20214 yr by dasox24
July 12, 20214 yr Just now, Look at Ray Ray Run said: It's the baseball draft. Top available if you like a guy is completely meaningless imo. You like the pick Ray?
July 12, 20214 yr Alright, watching his hoops highlights makes me feel better. Bulls can use him if things don't work out... I kid. Glad to see Kiley high on him. I wonder what the hit rate on midwest kids is. This was definitely not a BPA pick...that is why I question it.
July 12, 20214 yr Author @Harold's Leg Lift Thoughts on Montgomery? I haven't been paying attention as much because the Sox aren't at the top of the draft. I know we think similarly on prospects.
