Michael T. Hollimon (born June 14, 1982) is an American former Major League Baseball (MLB) second baseman and shortstop.

[2] Before the 2001 MLB Draft, Baseball America said that Hollimon might be drafted somewhere between the second and fifth rounds, but they noted that three factors might cause him to enter the University of Texas rather than signing a major-league contract: he had not had an overly impressive senior season; he was being advised by player agent Scott Boras; and he was looking for a $2 million signing bonus.

[2] His average fell to .236 during his sophomore year, and following that season Hollimon batted only .197 while playing for the Wareham Gatemen of the Cape Cod League.

[2][4] The Minnesota Twins picked Hollimon in the 49th round of the 2003 draft, but he chose to stay at Texas.

Hollimon saw action in the Texas Collegiate League that summer and earned an all–star designation with his .323 batting average and 7 home runs.

[2] Hollimon transferred to Oral Roberts University for his senior season, batting .304 and leading all players in the Mid-Continent Conference with 14 home runs and 55 RBI.

[5] He was called up to the Detroit Tigers from the Triple–A Toledo Mud Hens on June 6, 2008, to replace injured shortstop Ramón Santiago.

[8][9] During a game played at Safeco Field on July 3, Hollimon hit his first MLB home run against Seattle Mariners pitcher Mark Lowe.

[7] Hollimon spent an abbreviated 2009 season at Erie, batting .212, with 3 home runs and 21 RBI, in 29 games.

[7] He split the 2011 season between the Double-A New Britain Rock Cats and the Triple-A Rochester Red Wings.
