Holliday was on base 7 of his last 8 times at bat this year. That's a pretty good clip. I wish the year hadn't ended just because of him. Will be interesting to see if he can keep the productive changes in his batting stance next year. The O's really need a productive year from Holliday and it would be a bonus to put him at the top of the lineup as I think he's a better fit than Adley or Cowser.
That might happen.
I was down on Coswer 12 months ago and he showed up in March looking like a different player.
So it is certainly not beyond Holliday.
Actually, I don't think our proposed approaches are all that different at all.
Like you, I'm open to seeing what happens in the spring.
Like you, I think Kjerstad is first on the list.
As of right now, imo, Kjerstad has a regular role on the ML team between RF and DH. I think Mayo could be the 25th man on the ML roster as a DH vs LHP and a spot starter at the corner IF. And I'd have Holliday in AAA.
But a lot can change between now and April.
