Dodgers trade Jackson for Baez
Has Edwin Jackson' stock fallen so far that Baez is the best they can do for him? I remember a season or so ago Cleveland was interested in him and some names thrown around were Coco Crisp and Grady Sizemore. Baez is a good reliever, but I wouldn't trade Crisp or Sizemore in this deal. But back then the Dodgers weren't budging on Jackson. I remember this guy was considered the second coming of Bob Gibson. What happened? Was it too much too soon or is he just not that good?
