Austin Jackson DET OF is off to a good start with the bat so far while vying for the leadoff role in Detroit. He has had some troubles on the bases though with a 2 CS one of those being a pickoff.
Our Instinct: He’ll need to reign in the anxiety of being in the leadoff spot and let his natural ability guide him if he going to win the job out of Spring Training. He’s a great athlete but needs more experience before his raw tools play up.
