Dependable Washington RHP who locates, competes, and can string together quality starts
In the 2026 season, Jackson Thomas has been a steady presence for Washington, working 58.2 innings with a 4.76 ERA, 51 strikeouts, and 18 walks while showing he can hold up in the rotation[7]. He’s not a pure power arm; one preview notes he wins with command and location more than sheer velocity, which fits the eye test from his recent run of quality starts, including a 7.0-inning, zero-earned-run outing against Indiana and a 9-strikeout start versus San Diego State[5][10][11]. If your team wants a tough, experienced right-hander who competes and fills the zone, he’s a fit[7][11].
