Blue Jays Make Roster Moves Ahead of Opening Day
TL;DR
The Toronto Blue Jays released right-hander Jay Jackson from his minor league deal with the team. Jackson, a veteran of four MLB seasons and four seasons pitching in Nippon Professional Baseball, had a clause in his deal requiring the Jays to release him if he wasn't going to make the Major League roster. Despite interest from five other teams, Jackson could not find a spot on the Jays' bullpen, which is already full of established relief options.
