jackson is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Athletics, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.
While starting the last four games, Jackson went just 2-for-14 at the dish, dropping his season batting average to .246. Blaze Alexander will step in at second base Sunday in place of Jackson, who has been a near-everyday player for most of the season but could soon be at risk of falling into a part-time role due to Jackson Holliday (hand) moving closer to a return from the injured list.
