Jackson Jobe Allows One Hit In Latest Spring Outing
1 min agoDetroit Tigers starting pitching prospect Jackson Jobe enjoyed another strong showing on Saturday afternoon. Jobe got the starting nod and tossed three 2/3 innings of one-hit ball. He allowed two walks and added a punchout without allowing a run. Jobe allowed two runs in his first two innings at camp but has gone on to just allow one over his last two starts. The budding ace is currently viewed as a favorite to claim a spot in the starting rotation. Last season, Jobe received a brief look at the majors and tossed four shutout frames. He spent most of his season at Double-A where he logged 73 2/3 innings with a stellar 1.95 ERA and a 1.09 WHIP. He tallied 81 punchouts but served up a high 38 free passes. While he has struggled to command his pitches, he has flashed high upside strikeout production, making him an intriguing upside pick late in drafts.
