We’ll keep track of the game’s minor transactions for the day here…
- Right-hander Jay Jackson has re-signed with the Hiroshima Carp of Japan’s Nippon Professional Baseball, the team announced (English link via the Japan Times). He’ll take home $1.5MM for the 2018 season. Jackson, 30, had reportedly garnered interest from multiple MLB clubs, though his return to the Carp on a one-year deal suggests that any offers he may have received didn’t match the strength of a $1.5MM guarantee. The former Cubs farmhand and top 100 prospect (per Baseball America) won’t turn 31 until next offseason, though, so he could further drum up MLB interest with another strong performance in NPB. Thus far, in two seasons with the Carp, Jackson has logged 130 1/3 innings of relief with a pristine 1.86 ERA, 9.9 K/9 and 2.9 BB/9. Jackson briefly appeared in the Majors with the 2015 Padres and 4.89 ERA in nearly 600 Triple-A innings, though the bulk of those came as a starter.
Does that include a shower
I don’t get it. Do you mean people in Japan don’t normally shower? Or Jackson needs a shower? Or you want a golden shower?
I can’t type the f word but this stuff is effing annoying
Then why comment at all?
