Player Outlook
Mason Montgomery was once a highly rated prospect in the Rays organization, but he was becoming increasingly more hittable as he moved up in the organization, and the club decided to move him to the pen after a July 12th loss left him 0-6 with a 6.62 ERA in the Durham rotation. Montgomery then went on to work in the bullpen for the Bulls where he struck out 30 in 18.1 innings of work and earned a promotion to the big leagues in early September. Montgomery went on to strike out 17 of the 37 batters he faced in September with a new-found upper 90s fastball and sharp slider. Simply put, Montgomery has found his new home in the bullpen as someone who can come in and get punches when needed and should be particularly tough on lefties with his fastball/slider combination if he and the club choose to pair down his offerings to that combination. As it stands now, he could be the primary lefty out of the pen in high-leverage situations with the departure of Colin Poche who previously held that role.

  • Rays' Mason Montgomery: Moved to bullpen at Triple-A

    Rotowire
    Montgomery has struck out six batters while allowing four hits and no walks over four scoreless innings across four appearances for Triple-A Durham since moving back to the bullpen Aug. 8. Montgomery opened the season in Durham's rotation, but after going 0-7 as a starter, he shifted to a relief role and has notched two saves so far this season. Overall, Montgomery has covered 82 innings this season, logging a 6.70 ERA, 1.65 WHIP and 91:31 K:BB. In spite of his struggles as a starter, Montgomery still ranks among Durham's leaders in generating swings and misses (13.8 SwStr%).

  • Rays' Mason Montgomery: Missing bats at Double-A

    Rotowire
    Montgomery has a 3.99 ERA, 1.10 WHIP and 66:19 K:BB in 47.1 innings over his last 10 starts for Double-A Montgomery. The 23-year-old lefty has given up one home run in eight of those 10 starts and he has only gone five-plus innings in three of the 10, but Montgomery is excelling at striking batters out and limiting baserunners. He is not on the 40-man roster, so while he could climb to Triple-A this summer, a bump to the majors may have to wait until 2024.

  • Rays' Mason Montgomery: Dominant in two Double-A starts

    Rotowire
    Montgomery has a 1.50 ERA, 1.00 WHIP and 10 strikeouts in six innings through two starts with Double-A Montgomery. The 22-year-old lefty was excellent in 11 starts at Double-A last year, sporting a 2.48 ERA, 1.03 WHIP and 53 strikeouts in 54.1 innings. Montgomery is one of the most underrated pitching prospects in the minors, as he has a dominant fastball that plays above its low-90s velocity -- like a left-handed Joe Ryan -- in addition to a plus changeup. He should get a bump to Triple-A Durham sometime this season and could spend most of 2024 in the majors.
