Chicago needed a young star to help lead the offense into a new era. As Luis Robert Jr. suffered through another underwhelming season for the White Sox, the organization turned to its farm system. The top prospect, Montgomery, got his chance at the highest level and quickly left his mark in the majors. He went from an intriguing young player to a lineup lock for years to come.

Montgomery’s production at the plate and skill in the infield has caught attention from players around the league. Chicago finished a sweep over the Twins earlier this week as part of a six-game winning streak. Buxton got to see the young infielder play up close and had nothing but good things to say. According to MLB.com’s Scott Merkin, Buxton is excited to see what he can do.
