Orioles are having discussions about promoting Jackson Holliday this season. He’s 19.

Posted by Will Hunting (aka JoeMetz) Aug 19 '23, 15:22

The initial timeline was 2025 based on his age. Given he’s destroyed 3 levels of the minors, it’s likely he would break camp next year unless they play with service time.

#1 overall propsect in the latest rankings -- nm - budice Aug 19, 15:42
Druw Jones was supposed to be better. He…isn’t. - David Aug 19, 15:38 14
- Yeah, I said last week, they were 1a/1b and so far, they're diametrically opposite. - Will Hunting Aug 19, 15:40 13
  - It feels like we are getting a generational talent every year right now. -- nm* - David Aug 19, 15:42 12
    - I think the fact baseball has started to use technology to train is helping these kids... - Will Hunting Aug 19, 15:49 9
      - Wander Franco will get his own special category. -- nm - David Aug 19, 15:51 8
        
        A special hell -- nm - budice Aug 19, 15:57
        
        He was 20 when he did debut... so a lot of them as youngest to play...but yeah -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 19, 15:54 6
        
        This is the list i'm using. -- (link) - Will Hunting Aug 19, 15:55 5
        
        This is useful, thank you. Did you notice the draft pick was integral to a triple digit play last night? -- nm - David Aug 19, 15:57 4
        
        I don't understand what you're talking about ... a triple digit play? -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 19, 15:58 3
        
        Triple play. Sorry, it got autocorrected. -- nm - David Aug 19, 16:08 2
        
        Oh, I hadn't seen that, but that was a great play all the way around. - Will Hunting Aug 19, 16:17 1
        
        I thought that was a fascinating play by the Tampa player. He knew the kid at first was in his first game and only six weeks out of college. - David Aug 19, 16:31
    - I swear within a decade a third of the guys in the majors are going to be 2nd generation players. - Tim Aug 19, 15:47 1
      - Freddie Freeman’s kid could already duplicate his swing at three. -- nm - David Aug 19, 15:48
