Jackson has hit for power all year long. He had a slugging of .517 in Daytona which is fabulous for that league. The FSL has been known as a very difficult place to hit, especially for power. To have a solid slugging percentage in that league is extremely encouraging.
Many have been curious to see where his home run numbers go after leaving the FSL. So far in 8 games with the Smokies, Jackson has hit 2 home runs and has a .667 slugging percentage. He's going to be very highly regarded among all of baseball's top prospects.
