Jackson earned a save against the Diamondbacks on Saturday, allowing one hit and striking out one batter over three scoreless innings.
The Dodgers carried an 8-1 lead into the seventh inning, and with starter Clayton Kershaw having breezed through six frames on 76 pitches, manager Dave Roberts opted to turn the ball over to Jackson. The right-handed hurler refused to let Arizona get back into the game, giving up just one hit over his three frames. Jackson is not expected to see frequent closing opportunities, so fantasy managers don't need to seek him out on the waiver wire despite the fact that he earned the Dodgers' first save of the season.

Jackson is positioned to operate in long relief out of the gate for Los Angeles, though that role could be a revolving door as the 2023 season plays out. The 26-year-old right-hander has tallied 10 strikeouts with a 1.17 ERA through 7.2 innings this spring in the Cactus League.

Dodgers' Andre Jackson: Back in minors
Rotowire
Jackson was optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Monday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
After giving up two earned runs over four innings out of the bullpen Sunday, Jackson will once again return to Triple-A. He's fared well in his four appearances this season, putting up a 1.86 ERA and 1.34 WHIP over 9.2 innings. However, with the return of Tony Gonsolin (forearm) from the injured list, Jackson serves as the roster casualty.

Dodgers' Andre Jackson: Recalled by Dodgers
Rotowire
Jackson was recalled by the Dodgers on Saturday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
Jackson was called up twice by the Dodgers previously this season but didn't make an appearance on either occasion. In 19 starts and two relief appearances for Triple-A Oklahoma this season, he's struggled to a 5.00 ERA and a 17.2 percent walk rate, so he'll likely be limited to low-leverage work during his time with the team. Blake Treinen (shoulder) hit the injured list in a corresponding move.

Dodgers' Andre Jackson: Back in majors
Rotowire
Jackson was recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Sunday.
Jackson was up in the majors for a few days in late April but didn't see game action, and he'll rejoin the big-league league club Sunday. The 26-year-old has started in all 16 of his outings at Triple-A this year and has a 5.20 ERA, 1.74 WHIP and 59:48 K:BB across 55.1 innings. Per Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic, manager Dave Roberts suggested that Jackson is a candidate to start Wednesday's home game against the Twins. However, he could work as a multi-inning relief option if the Dodgers turn to a different starter for Wednesday's matchup.
Jackson is being considered to serve as a sixth starter for the Dodgers, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.
The Dodgers are contemplating using a six-man rotation in May since the team plays 31 games in 30 days, and Jackson is one of several candidates to fill a starting role. The right-hander has made four starts at Triple-A Oklahoma City this year and has posted a 3.65 ERA and 1.49 WHIP in 12.1 innings.

Rotowire
Jackson was sent to minor-league camp Monday, Eric Stephen of SBNation.com reports.
Jackson made his major-league debut last season, tossing 11.2 innings. His 2.31 ERA over that small sample looks strong, but his 10:6 K:BB wasn't particularly impressive. He should be an option for the Dodgers at some point this year but won't break camp with the big-league squad.
