Scout’s note
Colson Montgomery, a 24-year-old shortstop from Holland, Indiana, has 52 home runs in 224 career games, which is the real power profile at the position. His last 14 days at the MLB level were 3-for-32 with 16 strikeouts, and that is a young hitter who has run into the wall of a long season.

Cash and the tax hit are two different rulebooks and are never subtracted from one another — see the payroll board for his club, Chicago White Sox.

What the sheet prices each season at
| Season | 2026 | 2027 | 2028 | 2029 | 2030 | 2031 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Salary | Minimum | Minimum | Minimum | Arb 1 | Arb 2 | Arb 3 |
A base salary under his own reading, and never subtracted from the cash figure above: a signing bonus lands in one and not the other, so the two disagree on most men without either being wrong. And the sheet does not mark which future seasons are GUARANTEED — a club option and a projected arbitration award are both just a number here, so read past the end of the deal as his forecast rather than as money owed.
Two sources, read a month apart, put this guarantee at the same dollar. That is the check, and it passed.
The tax AAV above is his number under the CBA’s own rulebook, not the average we work out from Cot’s total. On a contract with deferred money the two come apart on purpose — and neither is subtracted from the other.

The Bureau on Colson Montgomery
The scouting press, in their own words
Before the big leagues. Before the ALDS. Braden Montgomery brought the 🧃 to the 2021 #Super60. Take a look back at what the Mississippi native looked like during his senior year of HS. 👀 @prepbaseball | @PrepBaseballMS | @whitesox https://t.co/sxvIjyYdDe
The White Sox traded Garrett Crochet to the Red Sox for 4 players, 3 of whom played every inning of the Wild Card Series: Chase Meidroth (2-3, HR, 3 RBI, R in Game 2) Kyle Teel (2-5, RBI, R in Game 2) Braden Montgomery (2-4, R in Game 1) Chris Getz, take a bow. @MLBNetwork
Umpire favor
+4.1 net runs over 52 graded games — the zone was kind to the umpire on balance.
