Jackson
is one of the top power hitters in the country over the past three
seasons, tying the San Diego Section career home run record with 47. He
has 11 home runs as a senior while batting .380 (35-for-92) with 42 runs
scored, 26 RBIs, six doubles and three triples. He's also thrown out 14
potential base stealers.
What the scouts say: He's considered
to have the best overall bat in the draft with middle of the order
power and good bat speed. He may not stick at catcher as a result, but
it looks like teams will start him out there.
Where he will go: A top five overall pick.
