Jackson was a good defensive CF, below avg at the plate and a pretty bad base runner. The offensive will be better without him.

It's funny when people make proclamations like this as if they were fact, and the the stats actually say the opposite. Guess it tells you something about their eye for baseball!

Per Fangraphs, Jackson has been above average on offense the from 2012-2014 (WRC+ of 134, 107, 101), almost exactly average defensively (DRS of 5, 3, -2), and above-average to excellent on the bases (UBR of 1.2, 6.0, 2.2).

Saw his stats last night leading off 4-2 with one walk. He had a great July at the 1 spot, and glad it's continuing for him.

I'm a Cubs fan first, Tigers fan second, but I'll miss A-Jax. I think the Tigers are better now, but he was one of my favorites.
