The Braves have asked Jackson if he'd consider a move back to catcher, FOXSports.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Apparently, the talk of a possible positional change is "an ongoing conversation." General manager John Coppolella said this week that while the organization doesn't want to put too much pressure on Jackson, catcher "is a big area of need for us in the future." Jackson was regarded as a fairly strong defensive catcher coming out of high school and his bat certainly hasn't played well in the corner outfield so far at the lower levels, so a move would make sense. Jackson, the sixth overall pick by the Mariners in 2014, turns 21 later this month.
