White Sox's Colson Montgomery: Expected to debut in 2025
White Sox general manager Chris Getz said Thursday that he expects Montgomery to be the team's shortstop at some point this season, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.
Getz was asked about the possibility of Montgomery cracking the Opening Day roster, of which he replied that the youngster would "get a lot of opportunity come spring training." Montgomery is on the 40-man roster, but a bit more seasoning in the minors seems likely after he slashed just .214/.329/.381 at Triple-A Charlotte in 2024. The shortstop turns 23 in February.

White Sox's Colson Montgomery: Joins 40-man roster
The White Sox selected Montgomery's contract from Triple-A Charlotte on Tuesday, James Fegan of SoxMachine.com reports.
Montgomery slashed only .214/.329/.381 with 18 home runs and a 28.6 percent strikeout rate this season at Charlotte, although at 22 (he'll turn 23 in February), he was quite young for that level. He could use some more seasoning, but with a fast start next season, Montgomery could push to see time at shortstop with the big club.

White Sox's Colson Montgomery: Struggling to make contact
Montgomery is slashing .222/.335/.370 with seven home runs, four steals and a 28.2 percent strikeout rate in 57 games for Triple-A Charlotte.
At 22 years old, Montgomery is at an appropriate level of the minors, and his performance thus far is backed up by a mediocre 23.2 percent hard-hit rate and a poor 66.7 percent contact rate. The White Sox probably would have promoted Montgomery to the majors earlier this season if he looked ready, but at this point there's little incentive for them to bring him up until late August so that he can preserve his rookie eligibility heading into 2025.

White Sox's Colson Montgomery: Showing power at Triple-A
Montgomery went 2-for-4 with a double, a two-run home run and two runs scored Saturday for Triple-A Charlotte.
Montgomery tallied his first home run at the highest level of the minors Friday and then followed that up with another long ball Saturday. Per MLB Pipeline, the latter homer had an exit velocity of 109.9 mph. While this has been a positive stretch for Montgomery, he also has a 36.7 percent strikeout rate across his first 60 plate appearances with Charlotte, so a promotion to the majors likely isn't imminent.

White Sox's Colson Montgomery: Sent to minor-league camp
The White Sox reassigned Montgomery to minor-league camp Monday, LaMond Pope of the Chicago Tribune reports.
Montgomery is considered the club's top prospect and could be ready to take over at shortstop for the White Sox sooner rather than later, but for now, he'll receive a bit more development time. The 22-year-old went 2-for-17 with six strikeouts in 11 Cactus League contests.
