Indians Trade Jackson To Blue Jays

The Indians today completed a trade sending left-handed pitcher Zach Jackson to the Toronto Blue Jays for a player to be named. He has been assigned from the Triple-A Columbus roster to the Triple A Las Vegas 51's (Blue Jays) roster.

Jackson was recently removed from the 40-man roster and really had no shot to make the Cleveland Indians roster this coming spring. The Indians also have a lot of arms to sort through at Columbus, so this is just a housecleaning trade and will likely turn out to just be a cash deal
