Jackson Holliday Throwing, Scheduled to Swing Next Week
Baltimore Orioles infielder Jackson Holliday (hand) said he has started throwing a baseball again after having his broken hamate bone removed from his right hand, according to Andy Kostka of The Baltimore Banner. Holliday is scheduled to begin swinging a bat on Thursday as part of a steady buildup. The 22-year-old had the stitches removed from his surgically repaired hand earlier this week and was also cleared for fielding and one-handed swings. The Orioles will continue to slowly build him back up this spring, but he will open the 2026 regular season on the injured list. Barring a setback, Holliday should be ready to go by mid-April. Holliday is an ascending young second baseman, but fantasy managers have to wonder if his hand injury will sap him of some power early this year. The former first overall pick in 2022 showed improvement in his first full big-league season in 2025, hitting .242/.314/.375 with a .690 OPS, 17 homers, 55 RBI, 70 runs, and 17 steals in 149 games played.
