Kevin Goldstein at BP on the Tigers top players 25 and under:

#3 is Edwin Jackson about whom he says;

"Call me crazy, but I still believe in Edwin Jackson, and I think that the Tigers got a real steal here. It may never happen, but he's been a breakout candidate for years, and he began to show some signs of coming around last year."

The two in front of Jackson are Cabrera and Porcello. Zumaya is #4. Is it a comment on Jackson or on the Tigers' young players?

And I wonder what he means by "a steal". Is he simply commenting on Jackson in a vacuum as a real prospect or does he think that the cost in trading Joyce was not significant?
