The Colorado Rockies have made headlines by selecting Ethan Holliday, son of former star Matt Holliday, as the No. 4 overall pick in the MLB draft. This marks a historic moment as Ethan is the first top-five pick to be drafted by the team that employed his father, who is also a seven-time All-Star and key contributor to the Rockies' first World Series appearance in 2007.

Ethan, who played for Stillwater High School in Oklahoma and was named the 2025 Gatorade Player of the Year, showcased impressive stats with a .611 batting average alongside 19 home runs and 64 RBIs last season. The Rockies have shared a nostalgic photo featuring Ethan in a Rockies uniform as a toddler alongside his father. This unique familial connection could inspire both players and fans alike as Ethan embarks on his professional career.
