Checking on Bolton's numbers, if the Red So9x can't hit him today, then all the concerns from the winter about needing bats will be realized after 32 games. The stats are not good.19th in BA, 26th in runs scored, 19th in hits, 29th in HRs, 26th in RBIs, 23rd in BBs, 29th in slugging, 23rd in OBP, , 28th in OPS.
After 31 completed games, those results are not just a couple guys slumping, that is an unmitigated disaster of roster construction and preparation for the season.
