[BA] 6. A.J. Pollock
Pollock parlayed Cape Cod League MVP honors in the summer of 2008 into becoming
the 17th overall pick in 2009, signing for 1.4M. After a solid pro debut at
South Bend, where he starred collegiately at Notre Dame, he missed all of 2010
after a freak injury during a spring-training fielding drill left him needing
surgery to repair a fractured growth plate in his right elbow. He spent his
downtime working on conditioning, especially strengthing his lower half, before
returning to play in instructional league and the Arizona Fall League. Other
than his bat, Pollock may not have a plus tool, but he has well-rounded skills
and instincts that let him play above his physical ability. He uses his quick
hands to stroke line drives from gap to gap. He won't have big-time power but
could develop into a 15-homer threat. His speed is slightly above average and
he runs the bases well. Pollock reads balls well and covers a lot of groung in
center field, and he had an average arm before he hurt his elbow. Pollock
projects as a solid big league regular or at least a quality fourth outfielder
on a contender. He was on the fast track prior to his injury, so he could jump
to Double-A to begin 2011.
