It's growing difficult to downplay Colson Montgomery's su...

A couple weeks ago on the Sox Machine Podcast, I offered the idea that Colson Montgomery hasn’t quite been right since missing a few games for a back injury in the first half of June, which Josh helpf

Based on Will Venable's pregame comments Tuesday, it sounds like he's also considering it more of a corporeal concern.

"[Mental breaks are] something that's always on the table as a solution for guys. I just don't think that we're there yet with him, or that we're going to get there with him," Venable told reporters.

"First of all, he went through this really tough stretch and he had some really good swings on our last road trip. So I get the question and the bigger body of work maybe recently. But I think that right now he's in a good spot.

It's certainly one of the sophomore slumps of all time.

They called me crazy for saying he's hurt and pressing at the plate to compensate.

CM needs a reset and a break

It has been painful to watch and I feel bad for the guy. If he had back issues then rest him

Otherwise he needs to concentrate on contact and not to drive everything out of the park. His performance is key to establishing the Sox as a legit post season contender. I wonder how many runners he failed to drive in.

it's so obvious that he has 1 swing only, would be nice to see him make adjustments after 2 strikes. if the coaches aren't telling him this then we need new coaches quite frankly

Colson is a 2 outcome player. Strikeout or Home run. I wish he would learn how to lay off bad pitches but he just can't at this point and then we will look at one right down the middle.

That's not why we call you crazy
