Brock Holt was named the Opening Day left fielder for the Boston Red Sox way back in March, beating out Rusney Castillo in Spring Training. Holt, who has been a utility man his entire career and coming off a year where he was an American League All-Star, finally got his chance to be an every day player to begin the year.
However, things didn’t work out too well for the gritty Holt. He started mainly every game from Opening Day until Holt suffered a concussion on May 18th, landing him on the disabled list until the first of July.
