Yankees DFA Steven Jackson
According to Marc Carig of the Newark Star-Ledger, the Yankees have designated reliever Steven Jackson for assignment. The club needed roster space in order to make a flurry of moves on Friday, including the activation of slugger Alex Rodriguez.
Jackson, a 27-year-old right-hander, was recalled by the Yankees on April 19 of this year, but didn't make an appearance. He's 27-29 with a 4.28 ERA in six minor league seasons.

Bit of a surprise here. Majority thought Angel Berroa would be DFAed to free up a 40 and 25 roster spot.
When Pete Abe mentioned that to Girardi, his reply was that there were more moves coming...hmmm!
Another thought is that Cashman and Co want to keep both Pena and Berroa on the roster for a week or two to insure that A-Rod can recover back to back days and sliding etc.
Still I would look for a trade that might include Berroa and Steven Jackson.
