Montgomery is a 6-foot-2 outfielder and righthanded pitcher who is more than capable of contributing on both sides of the ball in college, but has greater upside as a hitter in pro ball. He spent his first two seasons with Stanford and made significant strides with his approach year-over-year. After posting a 6.5% walk rate as a freshman in 2022 that figure jumped to 16% in 2023 and he slashed .336/.461/.611 with 17 home runs and 14 doubles. Montgomery is a better hitter from the left side but has some swing-and-miss tendencies as both a lefty and a righty. His greatest tool is a borderline 80-grade throwing arm which affords him a prototypical right field profile and has manifested on the mound with a fastball that has been up to 97-98 mph. He transferred to Texas A&M for his 2024 draft season, where he is expected to contribute as an everyday outfielder, hitter in the middle of the lineup and occasional hard-throwing reliever.
