Newsbreakers
December 12, 2008
The Tigers are excited about newly acquired pitcher Edwin Jackson and feel he can be a workhorse in their rotation, according to the Detroit News. Skipper Jim Leyland stated, "He can be a horse. He's a big, strong kid. I remember him a lot from the 2008 season. He can overpower you. The guy won 14 games. We like that."

Our View:Jackson hurled 183.1 innings for the Rays in 2008, but held a poor 1.51 WHIP. He also allowed 23 homers. The Tigers may be high on him, but he looks to be another disappointing starter for the Tigers' rotation to us, especially since the Rays' solid defense and bullpen won't be following him to the Motor City.
December 10, 2008
Fox Sports reports that the Detroit Tigers are set to acquire right-hander Edwin Jackson from the Tampa Bay Rays for outfielder Matt Joyce, according to a major-league source.

Our View:The Rays had to move one of their starters with David Price set to join the rotation next season. They managed to fill one of their needs by acquiring Joyce, a left-handed hitting outfielder.
October 10, 2008
What was expected is now official: the Tampa Bay Rays have put hurler Edwin Jackson on their ALCS roster and left outfielder Eric Hinske off, according to the Tampa Tribune.

Our View:This leaves the Rays with 11 pitchers on their roster. Jackson had a decent year, but will likely only be used as a long man out of the bullpen.
October 9, 2008
The St. Petersburg Times indicates the Rays' have named pitcher Edwin Jackson to the ALCS roster, leaving out Eric Hinske. Hinske said, "They want to carry an extra pitcher and I'm the odd man out. That's how it is. It's something that I can't control. I'll be ready if somebody gets hurt. It's not about me, it's about the team winning ballgames. No reaction."

Our View:Jackson would likely serve as a fifth starter against Boston. He won 14 games in the regular season, with a 4.42 ERA and 1.51 WHIP.
September 30, 2008
Edwin Jackson told Rays writer Marc Lancaster that he has been left off the post-season roster, according to The Tampa Tribune.

Our View:This news hasn't been officially announced yet, but given that the team doesn't need a fifth starter and that Jackson had a 7.90 ERA and a 1.94 WHIP over his last six appearances, the news certainly isn't a shock.
