Jackson Jobe hit hard in loss to White Sox

Jackson Jobe

DET Starting Pitcher #21

Player Stats

Jackson Jobe was hit hard in a losing effort against the White Sox on Friday night, allowing six runs on nine hits across 3 2/3 innings of work.

The 24-year-old hurler struck out four batters in the ballgame while issuing just one walk. He had only allowed one run through the first three innings, but the wheels fell off for him in the fourth inning. There, the White Sox struck for five runs as Tristan Peters slugged a two-run homer, Munetaka Murakami added a solo shot and Braden Montgomery smacked a two-run triple. Jobe got seven whiffs on 74 pitches on the night, posting a CSW of 24 percent. He’ll try to put this rough outing behind him as he brings a 6.23 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and an 8/2 K/BB ratio into Wednesday’s battle against the Pirates in Pittsburgh.

Jackson Jobe tossed five scoreless innings and got the win in the Tigers’ 8-0 victory over the Giants on Saturday.

Jobe gave up one hit, walked one and struck out four. You couldn’t have asked for a better outing in his first start since May of last year after recovering from Tommy John surgery. Jobe had never touched 100 mph before in the major leagues, but reached that mark on his first inning strikeout of Bryce Eldridge. In the second inning, he struck out Rafael Devers on three pitches, the last of which being a wipeout changeup. Jobe threw 71 pitches and will continue to be on a pitch count for at least his next few starts. That might hinder his ability to work deep into games right now, but Jobe certainly showed enough to be worth grabbing in mixed leagues. He’s lined up to face the White Sox next weekend.

Tigers activated RHP Jackson Jobe from the 60-day injured list.

While he won’t make his highly anticipated 2026 debut until Saturday, Jobe rejoins the Tigers’ active roster on Friday evening. If the Tigers are going to make a serious push for a playoff berth in the American League, Jobe is going to have to play a major role in making up for the departures of Tarik Skubal and Casey Mize. Brenan Hanifee was optioned to Triple-A Toledo in a corresponding move.

Jackson Jobe (elbow) will be activated to make his season debut against the Giants later this week.

Jobe will draw into Detroit’s new-look rotation following the departures of Tarik Skubal and Casey Mize at the trade deadline when they kick off a three-game series in San Francisco later this week. The hard-throwing 24-year-old was one of the top pitching prospects in baseball in the not-so-distant past and will be making his return to the majors after missing most of the last two seasons recovering from Tommy John surgery. He’s struck out 17 batters over 15 1/3 innings during five minor league rehab outings. There are probably going to be some workload restrictions down the home stretch, but Jobe is the type of talent that fantasy managers should at the very least be monitoring closely.

Jackson Jobe (elbow) pitched well in Saturday’s minor league rehab start at Double-A Erie, allowing just one run on two hits over four innings of work.

The 23-year-old right-hander struck out four batters on the day while issuing a pair of walks. He’ll meet up with the Tigers and throw his next bullpen session at Comerica Park before heading to Triple-A Toledo to make his next rehab start. It’s unclear if he’s going to work out of the rotation or the bullpen initially once he is ready to return, though how hard the Tigers push him will likely be determined by whether or not they fall out of the playoff race in the American League.

Jackson Jobe (elbow) recorded four strikeouts over three shutout innings on Monday in a minor league rehab start in the Rookie-level Florida Complex League.

Jobe allowed just two baserunners and threw 27 of 38 pitches for strikes in his second rehab outing as he continues to work his way back from last year’s Tommy John surgery. The hard-throwing 23-year-old should factor into Detroit’s second-half pitching plans in some capacity, but his realistic fantasy impact will largely be determined by their place in the American League’s playoff picture.

Jackson Jobe (elbow) allowed one run over 1 1/3 innings on Tuesday in a minor league rehab start for Low-A Lakeland.

Jobe hit triple digits with a pair of fastballs, according to MLB.com’s Jason Beck. The 23-year-old former top prospect threw 24 of 32 pitches for strikes in his first rehab outing since last year’s Tommy John surgery. He’ll need a handful of additional starts to continue building up his pitch count and stamina before he’s an option for Detroit’s pitching staff. He figures to be ready to contribute at some point during the second half.

Jackson Jobe (elbow) will make a minor league rehab start on Tuesday for Low-A Lakeland.

There’s optimism Jobe will be an option for Detroit in some capacity during the second half of the season. His ultimate role will likely depend whether the Tigers are within shouting distance of the playoff race. The 23-year-old former top pitching prospect has been hitting triple digits in bullpen sessions and is at least a couple weeks away from making it back from last year’s Tommy John surgery. He’s a name for fantasy managers to watch closely coming out of the All-Star break.

Tigers manager A.J. Hinch told reporters Jackson Jobe (elbow) hit 100 mph during a recent bullpen session.

The premium velocity doesn’t come as a surprise given Jobe’s previous status as one of the top pitching prospects in baseball. The 23-year-old is working his way back from last year’s Tommy John surgery and figures to be an option for Detroit’s rotation during the late stages of the second half. He could make enough noise down the home stretch to inflate his price in fantasy drafts next spring.

Jackson Jobe (elbow) threw another bullpen session earlier this week.

Jobe is continuing to work his way back from last year’s Tommy John surgery and appears on track to return to Detroit’s rotation later this season. It’s a bit unclear when the 23-year-old former top prospect will be cleared to make the next leap in his throwing progression, which is facing hitters in a live batting practice session.

Hunter Goodman (shoulder) is back in the lineup for Monday’s series opener against the Dodgers.

Fantasy manager can safely exhale with Goodman returning to Colorado’s lineup following a three-game absence due to shoulder inflammation. The 26-year-old slugging backstop has seemingly managed to avoid a trip to the injured list and will get a chance to face Dodgers lefty Blake Snell at Coors Field on Monday night. He’s delivered first-round fantasy value this season, slashing .251/.320/.541 with 69 runs scored, 34 home runs, 69 RBI and five steals in 460 plate appearances.

Trevor Story (abdomen) told reporters he could potentially return from the injured list later this week.

Story added that he’s feels fine from a physical standpoint after kicking off a minor league rehab assignment over the weekend. The 33-year-old veteran shortstop has missed the entirety of Boston’s remarkable midseason turnaround while recovering from sports hernia surgery. It sounds like he could return later this week after getting a few additional rehab games under his belt. Andruw Monasterio has done a remarkable job handling shortstop for the Red Sox over the last few weeks.

Quinn Mathews was lifted after allowing one run and striking out seven in four innings Monday in the first game of a doubleheader against the Reds.

It took Matthews 95 pitches to get 12 outs, so he wasn’t allowed to try to qualify for the win with a 2-1 lead. Still, this makes two solid outings in two tries for him this month. He’ll rejoin Triple-A Memphis after serving as the 27th man today, but he should get a chance to make more starts for the Cardinals before the end of the year.

Riley O’Brien struck out the side in the ninth to earn his 31st save in the first game of Monday’s doubleheader against the Reds.

O’Brien made it look pretty easy today, though it helped that he was facing Eugenio Suárez (36 percent strikeout rate), Dane Myers (26 percent strikeout rate) and Michael Toglia (just his sixth game this season but a 39 percent strikeout rate last year). O’Brien has allowed one hit over 10 scoreless innings in his last 10 appearances.

Making his first big-league start, Kent Emanuel surrendered two runs over five innings to take a loss to the Cardinals in the first game of Monday’s doubleheader.

It was a solid effort from the 34-year-old Emanuel, whose previous major league experience consisted of 10 relief appearances with the Astros in 2021 and 12 with the Marlins in 2024. He wasn’t designated the 27th man for the doubleheader — that was Zach McCambley — but he still might be optioned out now if the Reds want to activate Tony Santillan from the IL.

Elly De La Cruz struck out all four times up in the first game of Monday’s doubleheader against the Cardinals.

De La Cruz has started every game in which he’s been on the Reds’ roster this year — and he likes it that way — but a break might be warranted. He’s gone hitless in four straight games, and he’s hitting .127 in 15 games this month.

Carlos Rodón (elbow) will be activated from the injured list to start against the Orioles on Tuesday.

Rodón returns to New York’s rotation for the first time since hitting the injured list with elbow inflammation back on July 3. The 33-year-old veteran southpaw recorded seven punchouts over 4 1/3 shutout frames for Double-A Somerset in his final rehab tune-up last week. He shouldn’t have any significant workload restrictions in his return from the injured list and should be rostered in all fantasy formats. His return bumps Will Warren back an additional day and figures to push hard-throwing southpaw Ryan Weathers into a relief role.

Mets president David Stearns told reporters interim manager Andy Green will return to a front office role next season.

Stearns made it clear that the club will begin the search for a new manager at the conclusion of the regular season. Green, who previously managed the Padres from 2016-2019, took over as New York’s temporary skipper after Carlos Mendoza was fired in late June. He joined the Mets in a front office role prior to the 2024 campaign and will likely fill a similar role in their player development engine moving forward.
