Like a bad penny, Edwin Jackson keeps turning up on big league rosters. The 33-year-old Jackson has pitched for 12 major league teams. Now he's back with the Nationals, a team he pitched for in 2012, following the loss of Joe Ross for the season.  

The washed up Jackson had an ERA of nearly 6.00 last season pitching for the Marlins and Padres. His ERA this season is 7.20 before the Orioles designated him for assignment where he was picked up by Washington. The Nationals' bullpen ranks last with a 5.31 ERA. 

The Nationals also are going to have to deal with Mike Trout, who is back after missing 39 games due to a thumb injury. 

Angels starter Jesse Chavez is 5-10 with a 4.99. He's in such terrible form that the Angels can't be backed here against Jackson. Chavez has a 6.00 ERA in his last six starts. He's allowed 33 hits, including five homers, during his last 30 innings. The Nationals have the second-best offense in baseball behind only the Astros. 

The will be a wind of about eight mph blowing out to left.
