The month of April has been a fun one to be an Orioles fan so far. The team brought the second-best record in the American League into Monday’s game and the action on the farm system brings near-daily excitement, even on days like Sunday where most of the games are rained out.
The past week of games brought prospects pacing their respective leagues at two different levels. Colton Cowser was awarded Player of the Week honors for the International League, while down in Low-A, Jackson Holliday won the same award for the week. Holliday’s thrashing of the Carolina League is now at an end as the Orioles announced on Monday that he’s being promoted to High-A Aberdeen.
