Scout’s note
Jackson Kent is a 23-year-old left-hander from Hanover Park, Illinois, drafted by Washington in the fourth round in 2024. His entire big-league resume is one appearance, and the one true thing it says: six strikeouts, which is a start.

On the sheet: 1 y (26)
Regime read from his service time, not from the sheet — it does not project him past this season. Super Two eligibility is the top 22% of a class and can move this line in a way service time alone cannot see.
Cash and the tax hit are two different rulebooks and are never subtracted from one another — see the payroll board for his club, Washington Nationals.
