Former Texas A&M outfielder Braden Montgomery is making noise in AA with Birmingham Barons

Former Texas A&M outfielder Braden Montgomery experienced a shaky start in Double-A ball after being promoted from the Winston-Salem Dash to the Birmingham Barons, but he's beginning to find his stride. Over the last two games, Montgomery has flashed the tools that earned him the call-up, quieting doubts and reigniting excitement around his development. August is still in its early days, yet Montgomery has posted an impressive .500 on-base percentage (OBP) and a 1.250 slugging percentage (SLG), signaling a red-hot beginning in Double-A. While the organization expects him to remain at this level for the rest of the season, there's growing optimism that he could make his major league debut as early as next year. The start wasn't easy. After going 2-for-13 with nine strikeouts in his first three games, Montgomery looked overmatched. But in his last two outings, he's turned a corner, going 3-for-8 with his first home run at this level. Though strikeouts remain a concern and could slow his path to the majors, his high ceiling and raw talent still mark him as one of the club's top prospects. Below are a few early clips from his stint with the Barons. First AA hit for Montgomery lands in centerfield Montgomery shows off his speed with his first AA steal Montgomery's first AA home run was a solo knock over the rightfield wall He doubles up on the day with his second hit off the game Contact/Follow us @AggiesWire on X and like our page on Facebook to follow ongoing coverage of Texas A&M news, notes, and opinions.

Colorado football's 2026 offer letters are out of this world

Deion Sanders is quite possibly college football's leader when it comes to swag, and he has brought every ounce of his bravado to the Colorado Buffaloes football team. He has brought in refreshed uniforms, new gear and a superior culture that was severely lacking before his arrival. That swag is, of course, a significant presence in recruiting, and it put the program's 2026 offer letters over the top. The official offers were sent out to Colorado's class of 2026 verbal commits, and as of Friday evening, there are ten. Colorado's top-rated commit, defensive back Preston Ashley, showed off the letter in a social media post. The offer letter includes trading cards of each coach on Colorado's staff, with each emphasizing the NFL experience that is so abundant. Each card features a picture of the coach with their former NFL team, along with a couple of seemingly exclusive cards of Deion Sanders himself. It truly is a unique and creative way to showcase the coaching talent currently in Boulder to recruits. Each letter also comes with a personalized trading card that resembles a one-of-one collectible card. Colorado routinely goes above and beyond in their recruiting efforts, and these 2026 official offers are simply another example. Follow Charlie Strella on X, Threads and Instagram.

Steelers inquired about potential Terry McLaurin trade, but one holdup remains, per report

The Terry McLaurin to Pittsburgh rumors are heating up — as a new report has indicated the Steelers have reached out to the Washington Commanders about a possible trade. According to DK Pittsburgh Sports' Chris Halicke, sources say Steelers GM Omar Khan reached out to the Washington Commanders to inquire about McLaurin's availability — but financial obligations may hold up a deal. "In reaching out to the Commanders, the Steelers learned that McLaurin not only wants to be paid like a true No. 1 receiver, which is expected, he wants to be a true No. 1 receiver on whatever team he plays on in 2025 and beyond," Halicke wrote. "With the Steelers having DK Metcalf signed to a five-year, $150 million contract, they've committed to him as their No. 1 receiver." ESPN's Adam Schefter previously echoed a similar sentiment — revealing on The Pat McAfee Show that McLaurin wants to surpass Metcalf's $33 million per season. Still, Khan's inquiry is an exciting development — one that should come as no surprise considering the blockbuster moves made by Pittsburgh this offseason.
