Colson Montgomery has big shoes to fill for White Sox after MLB Network ranking

One of the major storylines of the 2025 White Sox was the emergence of former first-round pick Colson Montgomery. The 23 year-old was at one time ranked as the top prospect in the White Sox organization, but his status faltered as he struggled with injuries and underperformance. A brutal start to the 2025 season at Triple-A Charlotte led to Montgomery being pulled from game action just a couple months before he'd eventually make his big league debut. Montgomery hit the ground running in his debut season and his incredible run put him on the national radar, which continues to be evidenced in preseason player rankings.
