Chicago White Sox rookie pitcher lands in the top 25 as one of MLBs best closers
Briefly

Colson Montgomery and Grant Taylor are emerging stars on the Chicago White Sox roster. Montgomery has demonstrated a strong hitting ability since the second half of the season. Grant Taylor, while mostly a bullpen piece, is seen as a potential top closer. Despite recently experiencing a rise in ERA due to bad batted ball luck, he maintains strong metrics, including an expected ERA of 2.58 and a low expected batting average of .199. Taylor's performance has established him as one of the better arms in the White Sox organization.
Colson Montgomery has one of the more obvious ceilings with how well he has hit since the start of the second half.
Grant Taylor is one of the budding young stars emerging alongside Montgomery and he has the potential to be one of the better closers in the game if he stays in the bullpen long-term.
After surrendering three runs to the Royals on Sunday, Taylor's ERA jumped to 4.68 on the season, but the metrics still love how much he overwhelms hitters.
His expected ERA is 2.58 and the expected batting average against him is .199. He's one of the unluckiest pitchers in baseball.
