A.J. Pollock Tested Positive For COVID-19
5 years agoLos Angeles Dodgers outfielder A.J. Pollock was late to summer camp because he tested positive for COVID-19, but he and his daughter, who was born three months premature, are doing well. Pollock experienced some mild symptoms and arrived to camp earlier this week, so he should have no problem getting ready for Opening Day on July 23. The universal designated hitter should benefit the 32-year-old and help him receiver more regular at-bats in a stacked Dodgers lineup. Injuries have also been an issue for him, but Pollock can deliver some modest power, speed and runs scored numbers for fantasy owners as a late-round pick in deep mixed leagues.

AJ Pollock Beginning Rehab Assignment Friday
2 years agoSan Francisco Giants outfielder AJ Pollock (oblique) will begin his rehab assignment on Friday with Triple-A Sacramento. The 35-year-old has been on the shelf since early August after suffering a Grade 1 left oblique strain. Pollock's amid arguably the worst offensive campaign of his career, slashing .165/.215/.308 with five home runs, 15 runs, 15 RBI, and no steals over 54 games split between the Seattle Mariners and the Giants. Fantasy managers should leave him on the waiver wire even after he returns.

Giants Move AJ Pollock To 10-Day Injured List
2 years agoUpdating a previous report, the San Francisco Giants placed outfielder AJ Pollock (oblique) on the 10-day injured list on Wednesday with a left-oblique strain and recalled outfielder Heliot Ramos from Triple-A Sacramento in a corresponding move. Pollock injured his left oblique on Tuesday against the Los Angeles Angels and will now probably miss more than the 10 required days on the IL. The 35-year-old veteran has been pretty useless in fantasy leagues in 2023, hitting .165/.215/.308 with five home runs, 15 RBI and 15 runs scored in 133 at-bats. Pollock has gone hitless in six at-bats over five games since being acquired in a trade from the Seattle Mariners at the deadline. Pollock should be on the waiver wire in mixed fantasy leagues.

AJ Pollock To Sit Out On Wednesday
2 years agoSan Francisco Giants outfielder AJ Pollock (side) is out of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Los Angeles Angels. The 35-year-old was forced to exit early on Tuesday due to left side discomfort. He won't be in the lineup on Wednesday, but might be available off the bench. Joc Pederson, Luis Matos, and Michael Conforto will cover the outfield against right-hander Shohei Ohtani. Pollock has struggled this season, so he isn't much of a fantasy option anyway.

AJ Pollock Exits Early Tuesday With Side Discomfort
2 years agoSan Francisco Giants outfielder AJ Pollock (side) exited Tuesday's game against the Angels in the third inning with left side discomfort, per MLB.com's Maria Guardado. Pollock was pinch-hit for before getting an at-bat. The 35-year-old has dealt with injuries throughout his career and has slashed just .165/.215/.308 in 144 plate appearances this season with the Mariners and the Giants. Fantasy managers should wait to hear more after the game, but they should steer away from Pollock at this time regardless.
