Sun, 02 Jun 2013 23:17:03 -0700 Chicago Cubs SP Edwin Jackson gave up five earned runs on a season-high 12 hits, three walks and four wild pitches in 5 2/3 innings Sunday, June 2, as the Cubs lost 8-4 to the Arizona Diamondbacks. Jackson dropped to 1-8 overall.
Fri, 24 May 2013 14:59:06 -0700 Chicago Cubs manager Dale Sveum doesn't have any intentions of removing SP Edwin Jackson from the starting rotation despite a 1-7 record and a 6.11 ERA this year. "No, we're going to stick with him," Sveum said. "It's a long season. There's still another 20-plus starts here to fix this and get it going."
Fantasy Tip: Jackson's four-year deal gives him more rope to stay in the starting rotation, but Sveum effectively challenged Jackson to make some adjustments in order to become more successful. He shouldn't be relied on in shallow leagues and should probably be benched, if not dropped outright, in deep mixed leagues right now.
Sat, 11 May 2013 11:57:29 -0700 Chicago Cubs manager Dale Sveum said when SP Matt Garza (lat) returns from the disabled list, the team will not use a six-man rotation. He added that SPs Jeff Samardzija, Edwin Jackson and Travis Wood won't be moved to the bullpen.

Wed, 20 Feb 2013 09:08:10 -0800 Chicago Cubs SP Jeff Samardzija could start on opening day because SP Matt Garza (lat) may not have enough time to recover from his lat injury to be ready for the start of the season. Manager Dale Sveum said he does not expect to name an opening day starter for a few more weeks and indicated SP Edwin Jackson could also be an option.
