      Nice feature. Heading into this year, AJax’s prospects had dimmed slightly from “future All-Star” to “solid regular” but it seems like he’s getting more favorable attention again.

      I’m curious how he compares to Andrew McCutchen at this point, given that McCutchen has 762 AB’s in Triple-A vs. A-Jax’s 164 AB’s at the same level. I wonder if scouts still see McCutchen as the better MLB player down the line or if Jackson’s easy transition to AAA pitching has changed anyone’s opinion.
