AJ Pollock News
The San Francisco Giants decided Monday to release outfielder AJ Pollock (oblique), per MLB Network's Jon Morosi. Pollock, who has been on the injured list since the beginning of August with a Grade 1 left oblique strain, played for Triple-A Sacramento over the weekend on an injury rehab assignment. The 35-year-old veteran has managed a .165/.215/.308 slash line in 144 plate appearances this season with the Mariners and Giants. Regardless of where he may end up, his fantasy value is very limited at this point in his career.
San 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.
Updating 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.

Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder AJ Pollock has been a steady, well-rounded producer for fantasy managers over the past two years. There have only been two things that have held him back: injuries and playing time. The Dodgers have had a crowded outfield the past few years, but the addition of the designated hitter spot in the National League should help temper any playing time concerns. It should allow Pollock to be a mainstay in the lineup when healthy - which brings us to the more significant concern. Injuries will remain a key risk for the 34-year-old. He has only reached 120 games in a season once since 2013. Last year, Pollock slashed .297/.355/.536 with 21 home runs, nine stolen bases, 69 RBI and 53 runs over 117 games. His .286 xBA ranked in the top 10% of the league and his 47.4% hard-hit rate (82nd percentile) was a career-best clip. Pollock projects to be an everyday player this year for the Dodgers if he can stay healthy. He's a great target in drafts just outside the top-200 to round out your outfield.
