DOB wrote about Alex Jackson with some John Hart quotes: http://atlantabraves.blog.ajc.com/20...ct-in-jackson/
Hart said Jackson has the best grip strength in the organization by far.
A 24% K rate is manageable for a guy with big power. He has previously shown the discipline to BB at a decent rate (8%), so his low walk rate right now might be due to the fact he is hitting so well.
I am still skeptical he will pan out as an MLB catcher. Definitely interesting though.
Congrats to Lane Adams, making The Show for the first time since 2014.

2-RBI Double for Acuna and an RBI-double for Jackson!
It appears Touki will be one of the "high ceiling" failures. What ever steps he took last year...it appears he's lost. Still striking guys out though lol.
Acuna with another RBI-single.

Neslony with his 7th error.
Gwinnett would win 4 straight AAA titles if Sandy Vagina was running the team.
Also getting really tired of seeing Hursh in these threads. Every time I see him I think of the "but he is guaranteed to atleast be a back end of the rotation starter" ERA of drafting we suffered through. All those "low ceiling high floor" first round picks and not a single one made it to be even a #5 starter. Absolutely ruined this team.

Doesn't look like Touki was that bad, just got unlucky. 3 hits and 3 walks in 5 innings and 6 runs allowed with 4 earned?
So when is it OK to get excited about Alex jackson?
