With his spree of long balls since the All-Star break, the 23-year-old shortstop has become <a href="https://x.com/SlangsOnSports/status/1964476565745783029" rel="noopener">just the fourth</a> Sox player to homer 18 or more times over a 37-game span, joining Jim Thome, Frank Thomas and Albert Belle.</p><p>For a rookie who didn’t debut until July 4, that’s rarified company—and a flashing neon sign that Chicago has a franchise pillar on its hands. The résumé grows by the night. In Thursday’s 11-8 win, Montgomery blasted a Statcast-projected 454-foot shot to right, his second homer of at least 450 feet this season—no other rookie has done that in 2025.</p><p>He’s punishing spin, too: entering Friday, his .686 slugging percentage against breaking balls ranked second in MLB (minimum 50 plate appearances ending on breakers). Since the break, his 18 homers lead the American League, a surge built on advanced strike-zone control and the kind of barrel consistency that rarely shows up this fast.</p><h2><b>Colson Montgomery appears to be a star in the making for the White Sox</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Colson-Montgomery-with-Chicago-White-Sox.jpg"><figcaption>Matt Marton-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>Opponents have noticed. Twins <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mlb/chicago-white-sox/white-sox-news-colson-montgomery-receives-praise-from-byron-buxton-2">All-Star Byron Buxton, whose plaudits hadn’t yet reached Montgomery</a> until a reporter mentioned them, summed up what the league is seeing: “Just a baller. He goes up there and he takes great at-bats, quality at-bats. Honestly, it looks like he’s been in the league for a couple of years… just seems like a big leaguer.”</p><p>Hearing that, Montgomery grinned: “It’s pretty sick. Somebody like him, who has been around the league… it’s pretty cool to hear that from him.” Their mutual respect even turned into a keepsake swap—Montgomery signed a card; Buxton sent over a bat.</p><p>That veteran validation has followed Montgomery around the diamond. He’s had on-field small talk with Aaron Judge, Giancarlo Stanton, Kyle Schwarber, Bryce Harper and Nick Castellanos—brief exchanges, but the message is consistent: keep going. “Those guys… it’s pretty cool when you hear them say, ‘Keep swinging it,’” Montgomery said. “Game recognizes game.”</p><p>Of course, even white-hot rookies run into buzzsaws. On Saturday in Detroit, Tarik Skubal muted Chicago’s lineup in a 6-0 Tigers win that snapped the Sox’s six-game streak. Montgomery and the offense were quiet until a Bryan Ramos double broke up a no-hit bid in the fifth, and starter Martín Pérez couldn’t dodge damage in a five-run fourth.</p><p>Still, there were silver linings: an overworked bullpen stacked zeroes after Pérez departed, with Wikelman González, Steven Wilson and Dan Altavilla combining for four scoreless, seven strikeouts and a handful of slick plays behind them. “They’re really tired… but they did an outstanding job,” manager Will Venable said.</p><p>The bigger picture, though, is Montgomery’s rocket climb from tantalizing prospect to lineup engine. He carries himself like he belongs, he’s learning from stars on both sides, and he’s producing at a pace that evokes Thome, Thomas and Belle. That’s not a hot streak; that’s a trajectory.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

First year manager <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mlb/chicago-white-sox/white-sox-news-the-change-that-produced-a-surprise-1-89-era-trade-candidate">Will Venable has worked hard to instill a new culture</a> in the clubhouse and focus on his young talent. With less than a month left in the season, he seems to be pressing the right buttons. Minnesota Twins All-Star Byron Buxton can see it, giving Colson Montgomery his props.</p><p>Chicago needed a young star to help lead the offense into a new era. As <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mlb/chicago-white-sox/white-sox-disappointing-player-chicago-trade-offseason">Luis Robert Jr. suffered through another underwhelming season for the White Sox</a>, 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.</p><p>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 <a href="https://x.com/scottmerkin/status/1964403631731699907" rel="noopener">excited to see what he can do</a>.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Towards the end of the month, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mlb/chicago-white-sox/white-sox-news-colson-montgomery-keeps-home-run-streak-going-vs-cubs" rel="noopener">Montgomery went on a home run streak</a> against the rival Chicago Cubs, no less. </p><p>On Tuesday, Montgomery <a href="https://x.com/SlangsOnSports/status/1960495314873237936" rel="noopener">etched his name</a> in history by becoming the youngest player to hit a home run in four straight games, per Sarah Langs of MLB.com. He did so at the age of 23 and 180 days. </p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">at 23 years and 180 days, Colson Montgomery is the youngest player in White Sox history to homer in at least 4 straight games <a href="https://t.co/yMhAVfOsNo">https://t.co/yMhAVfOsNo</a></p><p>— Sarah Langs (@SlangsOnSports) <a href="https://twitter.com/SlangsOnSports/status/1960495314873237936?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">August 27, 2025</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>This year, Montgomery is batting .23o with 34 hits, 13 home runs, and 36 RBIs. Additionally, he hit 12-13 home runs over the course of 30 games since the MLB All-Star break. In 2021, Montgomery was drafted by the White Sox.</p><p>From 2022 to 2024, he navigated through the minor leagues with the Kannapolis Cannon Ballers, Winston-Salem Dash, Birmingham Barons, and the Double-A Charlotte Knights.  He batted .215 with 50 hits, 11 home runs, and 32 RBIs. </p><p>As a shortstop, he has defied the adage of infielders not being power hitters. Recently, Montgomery<a href="https://x.com/ClutchPoints/status/1959407818584527075" rel="noopener"> hit his first career grand slam</a> against the Minnesota Twins. The White Sox are in last place in the AL Central with a 48-84 record. </p><p>Despite that, they have one bright spot in Montgomery. </p><h2><b>The potential Montgomery has with the White Sox. </b></h2><p>Already, Montgomery has demonstrated his ability to achieve great things in the future.

He can consistently accumulate power and drive in runs. Altogether, the White Sox are looking to turn him into the starting shortstop. </p><p>Furthermore, the hope is for Montgomery to develop into an effective defensive shortstop, complementing his exploits at the plate. </p><p>In essence, Montgomery can be a focal point for the White Sox as they look to revitalize themselves after several years in the basement. </p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Cubs manager sent his ace, Shota Imanaga, out to start the game. However, Chase Meidroth tagged him for a home run in the bottom of the first inning. <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mlb/chicago-white-sox/white-sox-news-colson-montgomery-first-hit-rbi-vs-rockies">Colson Montgomery, who has already left his mark in the majors</a>, followed it up with a solo shot one inning later.</p><p>Montgomery’s home run went 380ft., <a href="https://twitter.com/TalkinBaseball_/status/1948899987619819603" rel="noopener">much to the joy</a> of White Sox fans in the building.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Colson Montgomery’s first three big league home runs have come in three consecutive games! <a href="https://t.co/8K3kqBZbDI">pic.twitter.com/8K3kqBZbDI</a></p><p>— Talkin’ Baseball (@TalkinBaseball_) <a href="https://twitter.com/TalkinBaseball_/status/1948899987619819603?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">July 26, 2025</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>Imanaga left a fastball down the middle and Montgomery crushed it to deep right field. The home run is the third of the third baseman’s career. The hot stretch has featured three straight games with a home run, a stellar run for a rookie. His teammates jumped on Imanaga, building a 5-0 lead in just two innings.</p><p><a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mlb/milwaukee-brewers/brewers-news-overtake-cubs-nl-central-11th-straight-win">The Cubs just lost the lead in the National League Central</a>. However, Chicago is a respected team throughout the league and is likely headed to the postseason. Meidroth and the White Sox stepped up to the plate on Friday, though. The rivalry between both of Chicago’s Major League Baseball teams goes way back. Montgomery got his first taste of it and took full advantage.</p><p>After a horrendous season in 2024, the White Sox made some significant changes. They sent Garret Crochet away for future assets and started to seriously build for the future. It has been a slow process, but things are looking up now. <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/mlb/chicago-white-sox/white-sox-news-joey-gallo-respected-will-venable-take-fans-hyped">Former players like what Chicago’s new manager has done with the team</a>. It is only a matter of time before they are back among the contenders.</p><p>Montgomery received a lot of hype when he was finally called up to the major leagues. After his performance this week, it will be tough for the White Sox to not keep him around. He and Miguel Vargas have solidified the corners of Chicago’s infield for years to come. Even though the White Sox have talked about trades, they have enough young pieces in their clubhouse.</p><p>Chicago fans hope that Montgomery’s momentum can turn into a promising rookie campaign.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
