Bollinger achieved team highs this spring with 19 doubles, two triples and six home runs while driving in a team-best 45 runs and scoring 54 times (second on the team). He also went 22-for-25 stealing bases, which was second-best on his team.

He posted more team highs in walks (29), on base percentage (.534) and slugging percentage (.698).
