Autumn Dreamin Posted Monday at 07:31 PM Author Share Posted Monday at 07:31 PM Elko and Montgomery both make BA's hot sheet: Quote 9. Tim Elko, 1B, White Sox Team: Glendale Desert Dogs Age: 25 Why He’s Here: .357/.357/.857 (5-for-14) 4 R, 1 2B, 2 HR, 2 RBIs, 7 SO The Scoop: The former SEC slugger led Chicago’s system in home runs in 2023 and tied Colson Montgomery for most in 2024. He reached Triple-A in the second half and is gaining more experience for a potential 2025 callup to the rebuilding White Sox. Elko has three home runs through six AFL games, albeit with one walk and 13 strikeouts. (ME) 10. Colson Montgomery, SS, White Sox Team: Glendale Desert Dogs Age: 22 Why He’s Here: .417/.611/.750 (5-for-12) 5 R, 1 2B, 1 HR, 6 RBIs, 6 BB, 1 SB, 2 SB The Scoop: This was the perfect kind of Montgomery week, as he once again demonstrated that if pitchers are going to beat him, they have to come into the strike zone. Montgomery leads the AFL with a .613 on-base percentage, which, not coincidentally, means he also leads the league with 11 runs scored. Montgomery has always drawn his share of walks, but the most important number in the AFL so far is that he has just one strikeout in 31 plate appearances (3.2%). That’s a massive improvement from his 28.6% strikeout percentage at Triple-A this year.

Yeah that's what I don't get....everyone else was saying his swing looks good now and Law was saying the opposite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
