The Baltimore Orioles are promoting infield prospect Jeremiah Jackson to the major leagues prior to their contest on Friday against the Colorado Rockies. Jackson has been in the minor leagues since being selected in the second round of the 2018 MLB Draft out of St. Luke's Episcopal School. This season, Jackson opened the campaign with Double-A Chesapeake and held a .254/.291/.412 slash line with 16 doubles and four home runs. He then moved up to Triple-A Norfolk, where he has been quite productive. Through his first 38 games with the Tides, Jackson has posted an impressive .377/.398/.682 slash line with a 1.080 OPS, 14 doubles, and 11 long balls. For now, fantasy managers should expect Jackson to be deployed in a bench role, which will limit his upside in standard formats.

Baltimore Orioles infield prospect Jeremiah Jackson is getting promoted to Triple-A Norfolk. The former second-round draft pick'sseason-long slashline of .254/.291/.412 wouldn't show it, but the right-handed slugger has been hitting well lately. The 25-year-old is 19-for-64 (.297) over his last 18 games with eight doubles, a home run, nine RBI, and eight runs scored. It'll be his first look at Triple-A pitching since getting drafted by the Angels back in 2018. He offers both power and speed, hitting as many as 22 home runs and stealing 27 bases in 2023. His strikeout rate came in at 25.5 percent while playing at Double-A in the Mets' system last year, but he has seen a big improvement to 16.4 percent thus far in 2025 at Double-A in the Baltimore farm system. If he can perform well, there is a chance Jackson could debut later this season, but he is not a stash candidate at thistime.
