Outfielder Bralin Jackson comes from Raytown South High in Raytown, Mo. and is one of the rare players that bats righthanded and throws lefthanded. Listed at 6 feet and 178 pounds, Jackson has a wiry build with long legs. He showed a whippy swing with a lot of bat speed that produced lots of hard contact and a big BP home run.♦ White Sox Team Report (Midwest): Area Code Games (prospectwire.com, 8/12/2011)
In a previous report I mentioned outfielder Bralin Jackson as a player of interest. To me he looked like he could really run with the way he was moving on the bases. Now, his times to 1st base weren't great but I think that is more of a reflection of how he gets out of the box. I really think he is going to hit and hit with impact results. He is not a big kid, listed 6'0" 178 but his hands and his swing are those of a heavy hitter. He made a lot of hard, lively barrel contact and I love how he drives his hands inside and through contact, resulting in the ability to drive the baseball in the middle of the field. He has that backwards R/L profile but it seemed to have worked for Rickey Henderson! Ok, he doesn't compare to Henderson but others in the bigs are Ryan Ludwick and Cody Ross.♦ Area Code Games presented by New Balance: Report #1 (prospectwire.com, 8/7/2011)
The other player I liked was Bralin Jackson (6'0" 178, R/L, Raytown, MO). Jackson looks like he is a flier and he showed me lively hitting hands too. I am looking forward to bearing down on him some more tomorrow.
