Season's greetings to all of you! It's that time of the year to celebrate and enjoy the holiday season. Every year at Christmas time, I survey a group of Phillies prospects about what they get excited for during the holidays.
This year, we focus on just one up and coming player, corner infielder DJ Stewart. The 22-year-old righty batter had a solid season in 2021. In 94 games combined with Class A Clearwater and Class A Advanced Jersey Shore, Stewart notched a .265 batting average with 14 home runs, 42 RBI and five stolen bases.
Recently, I talked with DJ to gain his feedback on all of his holiday favorites. Read ahead for that interview...
-What's your favorite Christmas movie?
My favorite is This Christmas. My Mother and I would watch it together every Christmas, so it just stuck with me.
-What is your favorite Christmas song and which version is best?
This Christmas by Chris Brown. It's the final song of my favorite Christmas movie.
-What's your favorite thing to eat at the holidays and who makes it?
My mother's banana pudding. A perfect Christmas dessert.
-Do you have a standout gift from childhood that sticks out in your memory?
My older cousin each year would get me a doll as a joke and eventually it just became a tradition.
-What is your favorite tradition to enjoy with your family at the holidays?
Just seeing my family. I am very family oriented, so just seeing them each year is my favorite tradition. Merry Christmas.
