September is finally here, and for Yankees fans, that can only mean one thing…

The Montero Era is about to begin.

Rosters expand today, and as expected, the Yankees will finally call upon their top prospect, catcher Jesus Montero. 

His debut should be either tonight against the Red Sox at Fenway Park or tomorrow against the Blue Jays at Yankee Stadium.  Regardless, Montero will finally don the pinstripes within the next day or two, and once he does, you can bet he’ll never take them off. 

As long as he performs at a decent level, the kid they call “Monty” should be able to lock down a spot in the Yankee lineup, and maybe, even a spot on the postseason roster come October.

The presence of Jesus Montero could provide the Bombers with an invaluable weapon as they battle the Boston Red Sox for the AL East title—one that could even make the difference that allows New York to take the crown. 

Need more convincing? 

Well, here are five ways that Montero will present the Yankees with a huge boost down the stretch.
