The right-handed hitter has an athletic, defined 5-foot-11, 187-pound frame and present bat speed while staying on-plane and on the barrel to the pull-side gap. Quality round of BP that resulted in a peak exit velocity of 95.7 mph and 313’ max distance. Also ran a 6.94 60 and topped at 85 mph from the outfield.

Jackson showed an intriguing profile this past weekend, highlighted by his muscular 6-foot-1, 175-pound frame with present athleticism and strength. At the plate, the right-handed hitter presents a shoulder-width athletic base, getting into a position of launch via a leg kick. Instincts and awareness were obvious parts of Jackson’s game and make him a must-know name in Illinois’ 2027 class.
