Holden William Powell (born September 9, 1999) is an American professional baseball relief pitcher in the Washington Nationals organization.

Powell played for the Bruins at the University of California, Los Angeles, where he served as the team's primary closer in 2019 and 2020. In 2019, he briefly played collegiate summer baseball with the Cotuit Kettleers of the Cape Cod Baseball League.^[143] He was drafted in the third round by the Nationals in the abbreviated 2020 draft and chose to sign with the team, appearing later that summer in instructional league in Florida.^[144]

Before the 2021 season, Powell ranked as the Nationals' 20th-best prospect, according to MLB Pipeline.^[145] He was assigned to High-A Wilmington, along with several other top Nationals prospects, to begin the season that May.^[27]

Powell employs a fastball and a slider as his main pitches. He uses a changeup and a curveball less frequently, relying on the slider as his primary "out pitch" while working up to 97 miles per hour (156 km/h) with his fastball.^[146]

Schaller's primary pitch is a fastball that has hit 97 miles per hour (156 km/h) in relief appearances. He offsets it with a slider and a nascent changeup.^[151]
