Baltimore Orioles second baseman/shortstop Jackson Holliday will take a seat on Saturday afternoon. The former No.1 prospect in baseball started at the keystone over the past three games. During this stretch, he has tallied only one hit while striking out five times. As a result, Livan Soto will cover second base on Saturday and bat in the eight-hole. While Holliday has struggled throughout his first professional season, he has begun to find stable playing time, which is a good sign for his fantasy stock going forward. Through his first 50 major league games, Holliday sits with a .171/.224/.300 slash line. Soto is best to leave out of your DFS lineup as he has yet to tally a hit this month.
Baltimore Orioles second baseman Jackson Holliday hit a pinch-hit, three run double in the sixth inning during the Orioles 3-2 win over the Houston Astros on Saturday. The three-run double ended up being a game-winning hit for the rookie who now has a .572 OPS on the season. While Holliday's rookie season has not gone the way he would have liked it, this result in a high-stress scenario is a great sign for the 20-year-old. Saturday marked just the second game in August that Holliday has not been in the Orioles lineup, likely a combo of giving the rookie rest and avoiding a left-on-left matchup against Astros starter Framber Valdez. With the Astros starting left-hander Yusei Kikuchi on Sunday, there is a chance Holliday may be held out of the lineup until Monday when the Orioles travel to LA and face off against struggling Dodgers' starter Walker Buehler.
Baltimore Orioles rookie infielder Jackson Holliday will take a seat on Saturday afternoon as the Orioles continue a four-game set against the Houston Astros. The top prospect has not tallied a hit in his past six games and will get a much-needed break to get himself back on track. Prior to the slump, the former first-overall selection was riding a stellar .283/.328/.585 line with five home runs and 14 RBI in his past 16 games. Fantasy managers should expect Holliday to rejoin the starting nine on Sunday evening. As a result, Ramon Urias will cover the keystone and bat in the nine-hole today. Urias is not worth considering in DFS competitions as he will face Astros left-handed pitcher Framber Valdez who is carrying a dominant 1.27 ERA and a 0.56 WHIP in his past three games.
Baltimore Orioles second baseman Jackson Holliday collected four hits with three runs in Friday night's loss to the visiting division-rival Boston Red Sox at Camden Yards. It was the first career four-hit effort for Holliday, who also notably ripped his first career triple off Red Sox right-hander Cooper Criswell to the right-field wall to bring the Orioles to within one run in the third inning on Friday against Boston. The 20-year-old top prospect has looked like a different player in his second stint in the major leagues, hitting a healthy .286 (16-for-56) with five home runs, 14 RBI, and 13 runs scored in his last 15 games.
Baltimore Orioles infield prospect Jackson Holliday will start again at second base on Friday against the hosting division-rival Tampa Bay Rays and right-hander Zack Littell and will move up to the six-hole. Since being recalled from Triple-A Norfolk at the end of July, the top prospect in all of baseball has been delivering on his upside, going 9-for-28 with four home runs, a double and 11 RBI in eight games to earn a move up to the highest spot in the batting order he's held so far in his rookie season. The 20-year-old left-handed-hitting middle infielder is still only slashing .177/.239/.387 in his first 18 major-league games, but he's looked more comfortable at the place since being demoted to the minors earlier this year and is here to stay for the rest of the 2024 campaign. Holliday should already be rostered in all fantasy formats.
