Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could fill setup role
Jackson, who is on the 60-day injured list while finishing up his rehab from Tommy John surgery, could work in a setup role once activated by the Giants, according to Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle.
ANALYSIS
The 31-year-old hasn't pitched in the majors since 2021 with Atlanta, when he had a 1.98 ERA and 31 holds across 71 appearances. Jackson recently moved up his rehab assignment to Triple-A Sacramento and could be ready to be activated when first eligible in late May. Closer Camilo Doval has 11 saves and a 2.29 ERA this season, but San Francisco's bullpen has otherwise been fairly unreliable. Jackson also racked up 18 saves for Atlanta in 2019, so he could be in the ninth-inning mix if Doval struggles or gets hurt.

Jackson was a good illustration of how difficult projecting reliever performance on a yearly basis can be. After posting a 6.84 ERA in 2020, Jackson posted a career-best 1.98 ERA paired with 31 holds in 2021. A 90.2% left on base rate was in part responsible for the excellent numbers, but Jackson still posted a combination of skills that often lead to success for relievers. He managed a 26.8 K% while also limiting opposing hitters to a 0.9 HR/9 thanks to a 52.5 GB%. While Jackson was trusted in a high-leverage role, his 11.1 BB% is a significant blemish in his skill profile that has largely prevented him from picking up saves throughout his career. He gained increased competition for late-inning work when Atlanta signed Kenley Jansen in mid-March, and Jackson will miss significant time after being diagnosed with a torn UCL in early April.
