Jeremiah Jackson (born March 26, 2000) is an American professional baseball shortstop in the Baltimore Orioles organization.

Amateur career

Jackson attended St. Luke's Episcopal School in Mobile, Alabama, where he played baseball. He committed to play college baseball at Mississippi State University prior to his sophomore year. As a senior in 2018, he batted .637 with 15 home runs and 49 RBI in 34 games, and was named Alabama Mr. Baseball. After his senior year, he was selected by the Los Angeles Angels in the second round (57th overall) of the 2018 Major League Baseball draft.

Professional career

Los Angeles Angels

Jackson signed with the Angels and made his professional debut that year with the Rookie-level Arizona League Angels before being promoted to the Orem Owls of the Rookie Advanced Pioneer League. Over 43 games between the two clubs, he batted .254 with seven home runs, 23 RBI and ten stolen bases. In 2019, Jackson returned to Orem, slashing .266/.333/.605 with 23 home runs and sixty RBI over 65 games, earning Pioneer League All-Star honors. His 23 home runs tied the Pioneer League single-season record. Jackson did not play in a game in 2020 due to the cancellation of the minor league season because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Jackson was assigned to the Inland Empire 66ers of the Low-A West for the 2021 season. He missed over two months due to a quad strain. Over 45 games with the 66ers, Jackson slashed .263/.352/.527 with eight home runs and 46 RBI. He was selected to play in the Arizona Fall League for the Glendale Desert Dogs after the season. Jackson was assigned to the Rocket City Trash Pandas of the Double-A Southern League to begin the 2022 season. After two games, he was placed on the injured list, and returned in late May. Over 87 games with Rocket City, Jackson batted .215 with 14 home runs and 44 RBI. Jackson returned to Rocket City to open the 2023 season. In 82 games for the Trash Pandas, he slashed .248/.321/.447 with 15 home runs, 56 RBI, and 21 stolen bases.

New York Mets

On August 1, 2023, the Angels traded Jackson to the New York Mets in exchange for Dominic Leone. The Mets assigned him to the Binghamton Rumble Ponies of the Double-A Eastern League. Over 119 games between Rocket City and Binghamton, Jackson hit .252 with 22 home runs, eighty RBI, and 27 stolen bases.

Jackson returned to Binghamton in 2024, playing in 121 games and hitting .205/.245/.373 with 19 home runs, 61 RBI, and 11 stolen bases. He elected free agency following the season on November 4, 2024.
