Houston’s power-hitting, run-producing catcher who can change a game in one swing
In the 2026 season, Riley Jackson has been one of Houston’s most dangerous bats, posting a .269 average with a .896 OPS, 9 home runs, 29 RBIs, and 13 doubles in 52 games, while drawing 23 walks and showing real middle-of-the-order thump. He’s a right-handed catcher/first baseman with plus power, and he’s already shown he can take over big moments — including a two-homer game and a clutch three-RBI effort. The fit? If your team wants a physical, offensive-minded catcher who brings impact bats, Jackson is a very attractive add.
