Padres complete college-heavy draft by taking more
The summer of COVID-19 shaved the big-league season to a 60-game sprint, scrapped the entirety of the minor league season and cut the amateur draft from 40 rounds to five, excluding hundreds of high school players from a direct avenue into professional baseball.
Three years ago, the bonus numbers tossed around in scouting process were not large enough to move Montgomery off a strong commitment to Florida State. He threw 82 innings his first two years, was named the opening day starter this year, was cast off into the bullpen after a rough start to the year and was in the transfer portal when the Padres used their 11-round pick on a pitcher who three years ago was among the highest-rated prospects to not sign a professional contract.
