Danny Jackson
Starting Pitcher | Retired or Inactive Players
Pitching Sometimes I wish he'd just give up on throwing the changeup, it's like a BP ball! If you're going in to face Jackson, better be wearing plenty of protection. He's wild. Never a hard thrower, Jackson now has games when he can't hit 85 MPH with his fastball. The running movement on his pitches makes life tougher on lefties than righties.
Defense & Hitting His pickoff move is only fair. Jackson is nothing special in the field. Jackson is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Jackson has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Retired or Inactive Players have been known to use Jackson as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2010 Outlook Jackson flat-out isn't ready for this level of competition. Expect the Retired or Inactive Players to send him down promptly. But if you ask me, I'll pass on Jackson.
