The Diamondbacks went to the Fightin’ Irish for their second 1st round pick on Tuesday, selecting outfielder/second baseman A.J. Pollock from Notre Dame. Pollock is listed at 6′1″ and 200 lbs, which is closer to “pro size” than most of the players in this draft. There isn’t a huge upside to Pollock, but he could be expected to hit 15-20 home runs a season with another 25-30 stolen bases and a respectable average around .280. He probably won’t be a superstar, but he certainly has the potential to be an every-day major leaguer.
