Just like Baseball America, MLB Pipeline issued a six-week revision to its prospect rankings to capture the biggest early-season developments, and this exercise continues to be a tale of two Montgomeries.
Braden Montgomery's arrow continues to point upward, as he's hitting .405/.480/.762 over his first 12 games in Winston-Salem. It's not necessarily shocking that the further he is removed from the ankle injury that ended his collegiate career, the better he looks as a pro, but it's a real neat trick that you can't tell he jumped a level in the process. He's one of the biggest risers, climbing 10 spots to No. 38.
Meanwhile, Colson Montgomery had the biggest tumble on the list, falling out of the top 100 all the way from his preseason spot at No. 34.
