View Draft Report
Jacob, the 2021 West Coast Conference Pitcher of the Year, had an impressive four-year career with Gonzaga, capped off with an 8-1, 2.52 mark, 112 strikeouts and 18 walks in 85.2 innings. At 6-foot-3, 190 pounds from the right side, Jacob has good size and throws from a low slot, and relies more on pinpoint accuracy to locate his pitches than overwhelming stuff. He throws a two-seam fastball, a slider and a changeup, and has helped out of the bullpen in addition to starting. At 23 years old, Jacob is older for the class, but he’s an experienced arm with good control and command.
