Jays re-acquire former 1st rounder Jackson

The Toronto Blue Jays have re-acquired former first rounder Zach Jackson from the Cleveland Indians for a player to be named later. Jackson who is a left handed starter was drafted 34th overall in the 2004 amateur draft and was later dealt to the Milwaukee Brewers along with Gabe Gross and David Bush as part of the Lyle Overbay trade.

Jackson spent the majority of last season in the Indians farm system but did appear in 3 games for the Tribe posting a 9.35ERA in 8.2 innings.
