Montero was demoted from Triple-A Las Vegas to Double-A Binghamton on Wednesday, Betsy Helfand of the the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports
Montero has seen his prospect status go by the wayside the past two seasons. Last year, he was sidelined most of the season due to shoulder woes, though the Mets' doctors were unable to find anything that would have prevented Montero from pitching. This season, Montero was 4-6 with a 7.20 ERA in 16 starts with the 51s, resulting in the demotion.
