July 4, 20223 yr The order of operations for Montgomery should be simple: Keep him at SS as long as he looks be solid average there If at some point Anderson agrees to an extension, maybe consider moving him to 3rd (dependent on proximity to the majors) Don’t move him to the OF unless both SS & 3B are blocked for multiple years, Montgomery is more or less major league ready, and there is a massive hole in the Sox’s OF Given Colsen probably needs another two years in the minors at minimum, there is zero reason to consider moving him to the OF.
July 4, 20223 yr Back to the original topic, hopefully Sox move Colas up to AA this week. Social media hissy fit aside, he’s earned it.
