The San Francisco Giants have activated RHP Luke Jackson ahead of their series against the powerhouse New York Mets. This is welcome news because the bullpen has been bad.
The team’s 5.56 ERA is 29th in MLB. Only Philadelphia has been worse in the early part of the season (5.78). Thankfully, they’ve thrown just 77.2 innings, 21st in MLB. So, Jackson helps immediately, even if he’s yet to be the Luke Jackson the Giants had hoped for when they signed him to the deal last offseason.
He rehabbed from Tommy John surgery and contributed 33.
