Offensive summary
It isn’t looking pretty for the All-New England team. The outfield, catcher, designated hitter spots will be relatively productive offensively but the entire infield will be essentially a black hole in terms of production. Olt, Ahmed, and Flaherty have the potential to improve in time and become decent offensive players. Presently, though, it’s not looking very good. Here’s a projected lineup:
- Rajai Davis LF
- Sam Fuld RF
- A.J. Pollock CF
- George Springer DH
- Chris Iannetta C
- Paul Konerko 1B
- Ryan Flaherty 2B
- Mike Olt 3B
- Nick Ahmed SS
