Jackson Jobe made his highly anticipated 2026 debut for the Detroit Tigers against the San Francisco Giants at Oracle Park after being reinstated from the injured list. The 24-year-old right-hander had not pitched since May 2025 due to recovery from Tommy John surgery, and his return is crucial for the Tigers as they chase an AL wild-card spot. Jobe has a 9-1 record when starting, showcasing his dominance when healthy, and he impressed with a 100-mph fastball that struck out Bryce Eldridge in the first inning.
