Mike Elias said #orioles want Jackson Holliday to work on a few things. Hard to continue development while fighting for 1st place. Team will be seeing more lefties. They don’t think any less of him. Will be back. But prioritizing development
@masnRoch Weak stuff there. There will always be lefties and what difference does it make whether in 1st , 2nd or 3rd place in April? BS - Elias knows you need 100abs at major league level to get used to pitching. He was at 35 ish. And winning. Weak
@masnRoch Lame 😒 This is an entertainment business. Holiday in the lineup is must see tv.
@masnRoch Ask about McKenna and why not Mayo or Norby
@masnRoch Failure is a great teacher and should be just temporary. Jackson will be stronger and better for this little speed bump.
@masnRoch He may never make it back - or be the same. Not everyone is Gunnar or GR.
@masnRoch Imagine being a number 1 prospect but can’t hit lefties bro just sucks 😂
@masnRoch Explain why Holliday sat vs lefties in the majors but still faced them in the minors? How do get experience facing lefties if you're on the bench? And don't use metrics or analytics in your answer. Hyde (Elias?) needs to be asked this exact tweet.
@masnRoch How will he learn against MLB pitching in Triple A. The quality is so different between the two. That's the part I don't get. I wish Elias would explain that.
@masnRoch and money. jersey sales, ticket sales etc.
@masnRoch While it hurts to see him sent down bc I wanted him to mash day 1, I love that they CAN do this. He wasn’t called up to be a savior, he was called up to be a piece. Now he’s gotten his toes wet, saw what is/isn’t working in the Bigs, can go get work in, and come back and mash⚾️
