July 27, 201114 yr Some of you refused to like him or support him because we gave up Hudson for him(different topic which I hope we don't get into here), but the guy did play his butt off and was sturdy. Non-injury concern and an overall nice fella. I wish you the best Edwino.
July 27, 201114 yr QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 10:44 AM) I was at the home opener... best game I've ever been to. I've never loved Edwin Jackson more than that day. Overall, I'm happy with the time he spent here and I wish him well.
July 27, 201114 yr Good luck to Jackson, he always seemed like a good guy in the clubhouse and it seemed he knew how to have a good time. If Boras wasnt his agent I think he may have resigned here.
July 27, 201114 yr I remember someone posting "Ladies and Gentlemen... Edwin f***ing Jackson after being lights out in one of his starts when he first got here. I was excited. Good luck Edwin... I wish you much success.
July 27, 201114 yr On his way to play on as many teams at Matt Stairs. This will be the 6th trade involving him.
July 27, 201114 yr Is this where we're at? Appreciation for Edwin Jackson? The guy contributed nothing to this team in essence. The best thing he ever did for us was to help us dump Teahen.

The best thing he ever did for us was to help us dump Teahen. That makes him one of our better contributors this season.
July 27, 201114 yr Seems like a nice guy, even though he changes teams constantly. And that's all I've got.
July 27, 201114 yr best pure stuff on our staff, not prone to injury, always took the ball. Wish we could've re-signed him. What a gift we gave Arizona.

The best thing he ever did for us was to help us dump Teahen. I wish him well but Milkman is essentially right. Never should have traded Hudson. Very very dumb. Thank goodness Teahen is gone forever.
July 27, 201114 yr A debacle of epic proportions. Kenny is such a fool... But man, nothing but respect for Edwin...dude took the ball and gave us great innings. I for one would like the guy back, but with his agent we knew that was most likely not happening. So Williams has to move the guy we got for Hudson for a aging Relief Pitcher and a mediocre prospect.

Edwin didn't trade himself to the Sox for Dan Hudson. The guy pitched well for us, which is the only thing in his control. Thanks for the innings, Edwin. You deserved a better fate. Good luck with the Cards!
July 27, 201114 yr Edwin didn't trade himself to the Sox for Dan Hudson. You ever wonder if a guy hears about a trade and thinks, "D*mn, the team that traded for me really got screwed!"
July 27, 201114 yr What a bizarre pitcher. He could no hit the red sox or give up 10 to the mariners and neither would surprise me.
July 27, 201114 yr Thanks for screwing up my fantasy team before I dropped you...now the sox dropped you, seems to be a common theme with your career.
July 27, 201114 yr QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 03:12 PM) You are inconsistent, annoying, and not particularly fun to read. Peace.
July 27, 201114 yr Edwin was really fun to watch when he had good control. The guy has ace stuff, but his control is mediocre at best.
July 27, 201114 yr QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 10:24 AM) Good luck to Jackson, he always seemed like a good guy in the clubhouse and it seemed he knew how to have a good time. If Boras wasnt his agent I think he may have resigned here. Or he may not have been traded so often.
