Montas struck out four and allowed one earned run on two hits and four walks over 2.1 innings in Friday's 6-3 loss to the Twins.
Montas' 49-pitch outing was anything but dull, with his control issues leading to an elevated pitch count. The hard-throwing reliever appears to be struggling with some of the same issues that led to his demotion to Triple-A Nashville earlier in the season, but his considerable upside and tantalizing upper-90s fastball are likely to continue affording him plenty of rope for the time being.
