Texas A&M baseball has made another big splash in the transfer portal, landing junior OF/ RHP Braden Montgomery from Stanford.
The Madison, Mississippi native was the No. 1 player in the portal and was named Pac-12 Freshman of the Year in 2022. He hit .336 last season with 17 homer runs and 61 RBI for the Cardinal.
Montgomery also pitches, and despite his 12.21 ERA last season, controls a 95-97 mph fastball. He also went 2.1 innings in relief against the Aggies in the Stanford Regional, allowing one earned run with three strikeouts.
With Montgomery, A&M has added another dynamic piece to its transfer class and will be poised to make another run back to the College World Series in 2024.
