Not even astonishingly-bad BABIP luck could keep 2024 from turning into a bummer for this guy. Good left-handed relievers should be cherished, and Aaron Bummer fits the bill in that regard. The Atlanta Braves picked him up in a trade in November 2023 and despite the fact that it took five players leaving in order for the Braves to bring him in, it ended up being a pretty lopsided trade in favor of...2024

"Only four active pitchers rank in the top 50 in appearances as a Brave, Julio Teheran (42), Luke Jackson (37), Kimbrel (20) and Minter (13)."

2023
"com/2KEWGe7qMU— Rob Friedman (@PitchingNinja) August 26, 2023 Gabe Kapler let Manaea retire Rosario in the top of the sixth before turning to the bullpen for the second time and bringing in old friend Luke Jackson, and Jackson very nicely gave up a solo homer, this one to Orlando Arcia, to bring the score to 4-2."

2022
"To make room on the 40-man roster, fellow reliever Luke Jackson was placed on the 60-day IL."

2021
"The Dodgers had just rallied for a run against ineffective reliever Luke Jackson and had runners on second and third base with nobody out."

2019

2014
"Josh Childress, Luke Jackson, Adam Morrison, Martell Webster, Ronnie Brewer, Julian Wright, Joe Alexander—these guys couldn't get it to click through three years in the league, and though some of them have stuck around, their value has plummeted since their rookie seasons."
