ANALYSIS: Oakland Athletics starting pitcher Edwin Jackson has been one of the great stories of the 2018 MLB season. Minus a couple tough matchups against the Rangers, Jackson has been a serviceable streaming option in the fantasy baseball realm as well. He has allowed two earned runs, or less, in four consecutive appearances (leaving out the Texas games). On the down side, Jackson’s strikeout numbers are not high. He’s punched out five batters, or more, in only two of the last six contests.
This week, Jackson will be a two-start pitcher, but he has the misfortune of facing the two teams fighting with Oakland in the AL West. First, he will face the Astros in Houston and then he will face the Mariners in Oakland. While his matchup in Houston is not good, at least he will face the Mariners in Oakland, where he will have the advantage of a pitcher's park.
