I didn’t see Jackson as a reason we lost a game. That’s my personal opinion. Now we have carried worse players including Gray who is in AAA.

That is because you don't want to see the lack of roster options due to his being on the roster left Shelty with no options at the end of more than a few games.

I personally think we have still done screwy things with our bench.

Nobody saw Jackson.  He never took the field.  🙂

I saw him pinch run for Bell and score the winning run. Jokes aside his spot is as a backup. We are running with Caratini and Jeffers the rest of the way. Better hope neither gets injured.

It's only sporting.   The roster rules are there to keep juggernauts like the Twins from hogging up all the good players.

Theo Tollefson just reported that he cleared waivers and has been outrighted to St. Paul. I'm glad they could keep the catching depth he is with the team.

Looks like Roden may be the new Jackson given how the bench was utilized today.....

Certainly did not expect that to happen.
