1) Wash is much improved rotation
2) BOS shouldve have gotten him if he decided to do one year, but I guess he didnt want this numbers to get messed up in AL EAST
3) As a pitcher, I would never turn down 30M, who knows what arm issues you may get

How bad do the Orioles must feel that he rejects a $30 million contract to sign a 1 year deal somewhere else?

Can't believe someone offered him 3 years 30 million. Never really been a fan of Jackson.

Jackson can pile up innings, even though he's inconsistent.

One year, which is what I assume Jackson is banking on, he'll put everything together and have that breakthrough season. When, if ever, though is anybodies guess
