Jackson Holliday, considered by many as the best 23-under player in professional baseball, has been called up to the major leagues by the Orioles, making his highly anticipated MLB debut. Holliday's promotion comes after an impressive performance in Class AAA with the Norfolk Tides, where he showcased a .333/.482/.595 slash line over 10 games, including 5 doubles, 2 home runs, 9 RBIs, and 12 walks. The Orioles' decision to bring Holliday to the majors reflects their confidence in his readiness for the big league, as noted by evaluators and his performance metrics. His debut is part of a broader narrative of success for the Orioles, who recently secured a 7-1 victory over the Red Sox, with notable performances from other team members such as Colton Cowser and Corbin Burnes. Cowser contributed significantly with 4 RBIs, while Burnes dominated the mound, retiring 19 of 21 batters over 7 innings. This collective effort underscores the Orioles' strong start to the season and the high expectations placed on Holliday as he joins the team.

#Orioles have gone six up, six down. That means Jackson Holliday bats third in the third inning. It won't be long now.
#Orioles out 1-2-3 in the first, so Jackson Holliday's first at-bat will have to wait an inning or two. Cole Irvin takes the mound with #RedSox coming up.
When Ryan Mountcastle first bats tonight, the next 7 O's to hit in this game will be original Orioles, three of them No. 1 ranked prospects, three taken among the first 5 picks in the draft.

In the fall of 2010, our college had a series against the Longhorns for a 3 game set. Our hitting coach at the time was Josh Holliday and his brother, Matt, brought his kid to our early practice. I remember watching his son @J_Holliday7 with a sweet lefty swing. Go get em’ kid!
Holliday said the brief time back at Triple-A was beneficial: “Yeah. I think getting at-bats. I got a lot of at-bats because we scored a lot of runs, so able to get pretty comfortable. I feel like my swing’s in a good spot." #orioles
Jackson Holliday said he set a goal when he was drafted of being in the big leagues in 2 years - which he acknowledged was “crazy” for a HS kid to do. He beat that timetable: 21 months. https://t.co/YT8WstWHUR

Making his MLB debut at 20, Jackson Holliday is ancient compared to Brooks Robinson, who broke in at 18. Listen to Brooks discuss it in my vintage interview with him at The Bird Tapes:, my new #Orioles history venture. Please subscribe if interested! https://t.co/NOM1yoT7Iy https://t.co/0jcV5ym8Qs

Giddy up, Orioles, pick up your feet Holliday’s here to rock. Swing and a-bring in Baltimore runs, It’s Holiday’s time to rock. Also due up in @jonbecker_’s Top of the Order: Blake Snell’s Giants debut, the free-swinging Giancarlo Stanton, and more… https://t.co/xcVcAkgvMd
Until last night, the @NorfolkTides boasted the No. 1 prospect in baseball. But even with Jackson Holliday jumping to the majors, this is still a loaded team. They are still the No. 1 the most talented team in the minors https://t.co/GfatCcZUnM
So, he will look older than this when he debuts at Fenway Park. I promise. Jackson Holliday has been preparing for this day since a bat was taller than him. https://t.co/dsuIcvJ4VB

It may not happen at the outset, but we could see it shortly. Batting first - Jackson Holliday Batting second - Adley Rutschman Batting third - Gunnar Henderson Two 1/1 picks at top and the last three No. 1 prospects in baseball. Could be fun I guess.
