Drew Pomeranz Scouting Report:
It's been a pretty great year for Pomeranz as his success led to hi being dealt from a cellar dweller to a possible contender. He had a rough couple of starts when he first joined Boston, but over his last four outings, he has been excellent. During his last start on the 20th in Detroit against the Tigers, he didn't pitch too deep into game, but only allowed one run on four hits, one home run, while he walked none and struck out three over five innings pitched.
