Jobe’s Rehab Progress Picking Up | Detroit Tigers News

Jackson Jobe’s comeback from Tommy John surgery is gaining momentum, as he delivered his third rehab start this past Sunday for Erie, the Tigers’ Double-A affiliate. Facing a tough Richmond lineup, Jobe went three innings, allowing just one unearned run on three hits while striking out three and walking none. Throwing 44 pitches—28 strikes—he’s clearly building arm strength and endurance, up from 32 and 38 pitches in earlier outings. Though still months away from rejoining the Tigers’ rotation, his steady progress suggests an August return is possible. Once a key part of Detroit’s rotation last season before a flexor strain sidelined him, Jobe remains a promising piece for the future, with the team prioritizing his long-term health over rushing his return.
