Tigers Select Jackson Jobe Third Overall In Amateur Draft
3 years agoThe Detroit Tigers selected high school right-hander Jackson Jobe with the third overall selection in the 2021 amateur draft. Rotoballer had him ranked as the ninth-best prospect available. Jobe has an advanced approach for a prep pitcher. He has a mid-90s fastball and a high-spin slider. He also has a good frame with projection left, is athletic, and should throw strikes. Jobe is without a doubt the best prep arm available but he comes with the same risks as any other high school arm. He should slide into the Tigers system as their fourth-best prospect and gives Detroit enviable young pitching depth behind Casey Mize, Tarik Skubal, and Matt Manning.
