Jack Parkman Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 I'm starting to think that this is just what they are offensively this year. Moncada will help, but there are too many holes in this lineup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was always wishful thinking. Nor was I elated when Pollock was announced...because he is definitely not a RFer. Pollock is absolutely killing the Sox right now.

chw42 Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 The wind must have killed that ball. 99.5 off the bat at 32 degrees and it only went 300 feet somehow. That's almost a barrel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chw42 Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 Pollock's fly out was considered a barrel btw. Which is a good sign. He just chose the wrong park and the wrong day to hit it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
