Broadcaster Hot Take & Form Analysis
The strikeout numbers have been mounting for Colson Montgomery during this recent skid, highlighted by a nightmare performance against Pittsburgh on September 9th where he went down on three consecutive swinging strikeouts. He hasn't quite found his timing since, struggling through a high-K outing against St. Louis that saw him punch out three times in a single game. It’s been a gritty, difficult stretch where finding the barrel has felt like an uphill battle.
Don't count him out just yet, though, because the flashes of brilliance are still there if you look closely at the tape. On September 10th, he proved he can still punish mistakes, tattooing a sharp line drive for his 23rd double of the season. His plate discipline has also been a saving grace; he managed to manufacture a clutch RBI via a walk in the fourth inning against the Cardinals on the 12th and showed some physical toughness by taking an HBP earlier in that same contest.
We are looking at a player caught between a deep cold streak and moments of pure situational value. While the swing-and-miss issues are glaring, his ability to work counts and move runners—like that crucial walk driving in Murakami—shows a mental discipline that shouldn't be ignored. If Montgomery can translate that walk-heavy approach into consistent contact again, this slump will be nothing more than a temporary footnote in his season.
