Scouting Report
7/5/18 Defensively, gets behind ball and catches at it's height. Actions are athletic and developing quick twitch skills are reflected in 7.03 60-yard dash time. Jackson would benefit from elevating his arm slot on throws from the OF.
Offensively, 5-foot-11 160-pound, right-handed hitter initiates swing from neutral set up with reverse toe tap and stride to neutral. Separation is reduced by passive weight shift. Hands are loose and there is barrel feel. A bat exit velocity of 79 mph was recorded.
