Jackson Holliday
So..what's the upside here?
I looked over his numbers..and they are scary good for a SS. A .949 OPS for 727 minor league PA's. https://www.baseball-reference.com/r...d=hollid000jac Six feet, 185 lbs, which is the same as Willie Mays and Hank Aaron. He's not near as big as his dad. His dad was some kind of gamer, and all state linebacker in Oklahoma. If he keeps his work ethic, I think he will be a star in the bigs. Last edited by dsvitak; 04-10-2024 at 11:48 PM. |

Looks like a contact defense speed player to me. Maybe a Barry Larkin type.

Perennial All-Star and key cog in an Orioles team that has all the makings of a dynasty, if the new ownership keeps them together.
Of course, I have bias of having drafted him in my fantasy league, so take my view with a grain of salt.

His numbers look very good for a yungun. All those doubles. People today forget about the impact a doubles hitter can have.

You're all talking about the wrong Jackson.

#1 overall pick. Is there a better Jackson prospect?
Given your Brewers hat, I checked. Jackson Chourio, who, after several seasons, has a lifetime OPS of .820. Ummm....NO. Last edited by dsvitak; 04-12-2024 at 07:19 PM. |

One of them is going to win a ROTY award this year. Sorry. Don't be mad.
