11/09/2017 - Baseball Factory Select Training & Competition at Pirate City (Ages 14-18) Jackson is a tall, strong (6'2”, 190lbs) two-way player who works hard and improves every time he steps on the field. He can swing it at the dish with bat speed and barrel accuracy to hit the ball hard to all fields and make himself a tough out. He is fluid in his mechanics, getting in time with his front foot to whip the bat through the zone with strong hands. His lower half works well and he gets on plane early to make consistent, hard contact from gap to gap. At first, he works well around the bag with efficient footwork to present a good target. He has soft hands and presents them to field, dictating hops and goes to the backhand with ease. On the bump, he features a fastball, curveball mix with control to work around the plate. He shows a strong front side and a clean arm stroke to get the most out of his offerings and present difficult pitches to hitters. Staying in line to the plate will open up his forward arm swing and result in more action on his pitches. Jackson is an intriguing prospect we look forward to watching during his senior campaign.
