Jackson is 3-for-21 on the team's current road trip and he'll likely receive a day off on Sunday, the Arizona Republic reports. Recommendation: "He's more worn down than anything else," Melvin said. "I can't even remember his last day off." Since July 28, Jackson is batting just .208 in his last 77 at-bats. "Obviously I'm pressing a little bit right now," Jackson said. "It seems like nothing's really falling for me. That's the game of baseball, dude. I'm going to go through streaks and it's a matter of pulling yourself out of it." |
