Jackson is a twitchy switch-hitting shortstop that passes the eye test. It's a long, athletic 6-foot-1 frame with some projection still remaining. At the plate, Jackson has a smooth swing from both sides, maybe more bat speed when hitting left-handed. It's impact that has continued to tick up as he's grown into his frame. Jackson has some swing-and-miss in game that has been present in his games this spring where he posted a 72% contact rate. It's probably a 40 hit tool.
Jackson is a smooth operator on the dirt with quick hands and exciting range. He has above-average arm strength to pair, with strong tempo. Jackson is also an above-average runner, he'll likely stick at shortstop long-term. Even if this isn't the most polished, final product, Jackson has exciting tools and projection. He is committed to the University of Oklahoma and will be 18.4 on draft day.
