Jackson Holliday Recalled to Orioles Amid Trade Moves

The Baltimore Orioles have recalled their top prospect, Jackson Holliday, from Triple-A Norfolk for a second stint in the majors. The 20-year-old infielder struggled in his initial MLB debut earlier this season, hitting just .059 in 10 games, but has since improved his performance in the minors, posting a .271 batting average with 10 home runs and 38 RBIs. This move comes after the Orioles traded Connor Norby to the Miami Marlins and placed Jorge Mateo on the 60-day injured list, leaving a vacancy at second base. The Orioles were active at the trade deadline, acquiring several players including Trevor Rogers, which has led to roster adjustments necessitating Holliday's return. Holliday, the No. 1 overall pick in the 2022 draft, hopes to make a more significant impact this time around as the Orioles push for postseason success.
