Gregory Polanco Is Starting To Heat Up
After a very slow start to the season, Pirate outfielder Gregory Polanco is starting to heat up at the plate for the Bucs.
Entering the 2017 season the Pittsburgh Pirates were going to rely heavily on outfielder Gregory Polanco to contribute to their offense. The importance of this increased when the Pirates found out that they may be without Jung Ho Kang all season. His importance once again increased when the Bucs lost Starling Marte to an 80-game suspension in April.
Unfortunately for Polanco and the Pirates, he got off to a slow start this season. This has contributed to his overall numbers this season not being the prettiest. However, Gregory Polanco is starting to heat up at the plate.
