Baltimore Orioles GM Mike Elias explained why he sent Jackson Holliday back to Triple-A.
called up Jackson Holliday earlier this month, it felt long overdue. MLB 's No. 1 prospect had played well in Spring Training and was murdering Triple-A pitching. It was time to give him a shot.
After seeing Holliday struggle, Elias said he feels that Holliday will benefit more from making the necessary adjustments at Triple-A rather than attempting to do so at the big-league level. Elias also noted that the Orioles are set to face a number of left-handed starting pitchers soon, which means the left-handed-hitting Holliday likely would have been sitting on the bench anyway.
