Braden Montgomery is one of college baseball’s standout stars in 2024, leading a Texas A&M squad that is widely considered the number one team in the country. Montgomery spent time as a two-way player for the Stanford Cardinal in 2022 and 2023, but with a full time move to the outfield in 2024 he has blossomed and solidified his place near the top of the 2024 MLB Draft. The Oakland Athletics just so happen to be sitting at 4th overall, and with his first mock draft of the year MLB Pipeline’s Jonathan Mayo projects the A’s to select Montgomery.
