Jackson Cooke brings pinch-hit pop and veteran bat for Pitt
In the 2025 season, Jackson Cooke was a high-leverage bench weapon for Pittsburgh, appearing in 33 games with six home runs, 17 RBIs, and 30 total bases while thriving as Pitt’s first man off the bench. His loudest differentiator is real game-changing pop: he drove in a run in all six of his pinch-hit hits and delivered multiple clutch swings, including a grand slam and a game-tying pinch-hit homer. A senior C/INF with Minnesota roots, he looks like a fit for teams that value right-handed power, poise in pressure spots, and versatility.
