The Blue Jays have run out of excuses for why Edwin Jackson has remained in the starting rotation for so long. Jackson was hit all over the ballpark on Monday night as he allowed seven runs over two-thirds of an inning in the Blue Jays’ 10-5 loss to the Angels. He just hasn’t been able to find it,” Blue Jays manager Charlie Montoyo said. It didn’t work twice vs. the Angels as Jackson entered in the second inning of a 1-0 game and quickly let things get out of hand. The alternatives: There is a glaring lack of pitching depth within the Blue Jays organization, so the club doesn’t exactly have a lot of options to replace Jackson.
