BamaDoc Posted September 11, 2023 Author Share Posted September 11, 2023 Two days in a row without a win. Someone else do tomorrow. I’m in the penalty box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baseball_gal_aly Posted September 11, 2023 Share Posted September 11, 2023 Montgomery only hitting .217 at AA. At what point does the prospect shine start to wear off a bit? I lnow his approach is good but this is 2 years in a row he got promoted to Birmingham late and looked terrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold's Leg Lift Posted September 11, 2023 Share Posted September 11, 2023 It's a good thing he's struggling. Every player struggles at some point. He's facing better pitching and they're attacking him different so he's going to have to learn how to make adjustments and battle thru it. It's actually a great time for him to go thru this because he can make those adjustments and try them out in the arizona fall league.

Before I quit caring, I reach the point of "anything we get from him via trade or at the MLB level is now a bonus". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted September 11, 2023 Share Posted September 11, 2023 starting to feel like taking guys in their formative prospect years who just lost a year due to an immigration issue and giving them a second year to play with children has not been the best tactic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should try to salvage what they can and just make him a reliever at this point, he can't seem to hold up as a starter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last year he played 14 games against dudes (on average) 4+ years older than him in his first full season and admittedthat he was just gassed by then end. He's nearly doubled the games played there this season (31), still 2.5 years younger and coming off an injury. We'll see how he handles the AFL, but way to premature to start panicking. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish all of the “struggling” Prospects posted a .400 OBP and 122 wRC+ in the Southern League 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 That Vera outing looks a lot like yips on the scoresheet. Don't know what it looked like live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
