Jackson Holliday is back doing Jackson Holliday things.
It took only two games, but the Orioles' top prospect has shaken off his disappointing first stint in the majors and resumed his mashing of minor league pitching. Holliday is hitting .289 with a home run and three doubles over his past twelve games for Triple-A Norfolk. He's walked (15) more than he's struck out (12) showing the kind of production that prompted the Orioles to call up the 20-year-old in the first place.
"He's doing exactly what we're asking him to do," Orioles executive vice president and general manager Mike Elias told the Baltimore Sun on Monday. "He's putting the work in. He's been a very encouraging performer in the time he's been back down there, and I think things are trending in a really good direction. He's doing a great job of putting in a lot of work, and he's had good results to show for it already. Things are looking good."
