Actually I think this may be something we look back on and regret.
Montero's swing is superior to Smoak's IMO, hes developed far quicker despite being a C, and hes 3 years younger to boot.
Apparently the Yankees were messing with his swing mechanics early in the year and had him go back to his old swing a couple months ago.
Montero has a 1.100+ OPS since then and is BB'ing like crazy. Montero is one of those rare 80+80 type hitters and right now, either than defense, it looks his "polish" at the plate is already surpassing Smoak.
