As an orioles fan, I am so happy we are finding these amazing young gems. Not only are we a top contender now but we are a top contender in the future as well with how many great young players we have.
While I mostly agree, this dude wasn't exactly a "find" as he was the consensus no.1 pick. Still, you gotta actually select the right player, and the O's did.
@@mg-jf5ldidk if that’s true. Iirc a lot of people were surprised that Holliday was chosen before Druw Jones. I don’t think Holliday was considered the consensus top 1 pick like Adley was
Jackson Merrill is a Maryland guy too, Severna Park HS, the Orioles might have got him in the competitive A round that year if San Diego wasn't so good at drafting!
Sometimes guys struggle when they come up but with perseverance they can be just like Mickey: drunk all the time and getting head under the bleachers between innings
Bro is 20 years old, and struggled out of the gate. Everyone thought he was a bust. THIS is why Jackson Holliday was the No.1 prospect in baseball. He’s one special player.
His first stint in the bigs was rough, but he seems to be ready this time around. At 20 years old the ball jumps off his bat to all fields. Wait until he actually grows up.
The problem was, I think with as amazing a Spring Training as he had, the O's were under a lot of pressure to call him up as early as possible, much earlier than he was ready for. I think they need to try the same thing with Mayo. Send him back down, then try him again around playoff time and see how he does then.
@@ewandoanldson he has displayed a tremendous amount of mental toughness. That’s what I look for in the truly great players. I Iove seeing that. Jackson Holliday is something special. Feels like.a legend in the making.
@@TooMuchCincy happens all the time, he’s being hitting so well though through the past two years,that was just a little bump that people are soon going to forget about.
Love jackson holiday. He will be fine. Orioles are going to be THE team in baseball for next 10 years. But he is still only batting like .195......it will come up. He looks more and more comfortable every day
Yup glad I bought 20 psa 10 rookie cards at 35$ each dropped form 125$ just when he was sent down 😂🎉 kid is special I hope he keeps it up cards went up 175$ in 2 days
Henderson Holliday Rutchman (Basallo?) __ enjoy this while it lasts because at some point they will not be able to pay them all __ I would play Urias at 3rd we need some experience out there as well
He has potential to be good but he still has alot to prove. He went 0-4 in his last game, but he did homer 3 times. Baseball is more than being a homerun hitter. He needs time to show more.
Bush League Pitcher...... 0-2pitch, catcher wanted it way up, like 1foot out of zone and he threw letter high meatball to kid who's hit off MLB pitching for last 5 yrs since he was 7 yrs old.... duh
You know how idiotic u sound .. he just did something that only 2 other players in history at his age done (Ted Williams, Babe Ruth) Homer in 3 straight games at 20 and under smh as the number overall pick , current number one prospect (until he graduates out that status) and as the son of a future HOF’er … u young people are very short sighted to think the media will not cover this heavily lol u give off hater vibes
Can we all be honest about the fact that his dad’s name has him in the show. Anyone else would not be up. That said, I hope he stays healthy and gets to stay up.
