Not great. Jackson is expected to undergo further evaluation, but could ultimately be headed for Tommy John elbow reconstructive surgery. Regardless, he's going to be out for awhile. His absence is a significant blow to the Braves' bullpen depth. The 30-year-old righty posted a sparkling 1.98 ERA, 1.16 WHIP and 70/29 K/BB ratio across 63 2/3 innings (71 appearances) last year.

This guy was a monster in the bullpen. Big loss

Forearm tightness is always Tommy John. I knew once that was announced his season was over. Don't delay it any further. Get the surgery done now.
