Jackson Holliday is a fantasy baseball waiver wire stash for Week 20 (2024). Target Jackson Holliday as a top prospect free-agent waiver wire pickup for fantasy baseball.
BALLER MOVE: Stash in All Leagues
CALL-UP ETA: July
ANALYSIS: The Baltimore Orioles are set to promote their top prospect, Jackson Holliday, ahead of Wednesday's game against the Toronto Blue Jays.
Holliday got a brief taste of the big leagues earlier this season but struggled across the 10-game stint with a .059/.111/.059 line, and a 2:18 BB:K ratio.
However, at Triple-A Norfolk this summer, the former number-one overall selection in the 2021 MLB Draft, posted an excellent .271/.431/.477 slash line with 10 home runs, 38 RBI, eight stolen bases, and a strong 75:77 BB:K ratio.
In his past 23 games, Holliday has held a .506 SLG with 21 total hits and nine doubles.

The 20-year-old should have stable playing time going forward as second baseman Jorge Mateo (elbow) was transferred to the 60-day IL. This opens up full-time keystone duties for Holliday which will shift Jordan Westburg to the hot corner.
Even though Holliday struggled in his first look at major league pitching, he should be added in all leagues as he has league-winning potential and should have ample opportunities to get accustomed to the major leagues.
