On April 20, 2005, Montero became the third player to test positive under Major League Baseball's new steroid policy, and was suspended for 10 days without pay.[1] Although he had not played in the Major Leagues at that time, he was on the Rangers' 40-man roster during spring training, and was subject to random testing.

He signed a minor league contract with the Oakland Athletics on June 9, 2007. He was later released and signed with the Northwest Independent League on May 27, 2008.
