Former Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Edwin Jackson retired after spending parts of 17 seasons in the Majors. He played for an MLB record 14 teams during that span, and last was in the big leagues with the Detroit Tigers in 2019.

Jackson signed a Minor League contract with the Arizona Diamondbacks in 2020, though didn’t get an opportunity to pitch that season. Jackson made the retirement announcement on his 39th birthday and 19th anniversary of his MLB debut with the Dodgers.

Jackson was selected by the Dodgers in the sixth round of the 2001 MLB Draft. He went on to play for an MLB-record 14 teams.

Jackson was only with the Dodgers from 2003-2005, and also played a career-high-tying three seasons for the Tampa Bay Rays (2006-2008) and Chicago Cubs (2013-2015).

The right-hander additionally pitched for the Arizona Diamondbacks, Chicago White Sox, Toronto Blue Jays, St. Louis Cardinals, Washington Nationals, Atlanta Braves, Miami Marlins, San Diego Padres, Baltimore Orioles and Oakland Athletics. Fourteen teams is a major league record.

Jackson’s career highlights include throwing a no-hitter for the Diamondbacks on June 25 against the Rays. He finished with a 4.78 ERA over 412 games (318 starts).

Although Jackson had last pitched in the Majors in 2019, he was part of Team USA that won the silver medal at the Summer Olympics in 2001.

Dodgers trade Andre Jackson

On Jan. 14, 2006, the Dodgers traded Jackson and Chuck Tiffany to the Tampa Bay Devil Rays for Danys Baez and Lance Carter, and cash considerations or a player to be named later.

At the time, he was the organization’s best prospect and only 22 years old but had struggled at the Major League level. Jackson finished his Dodgers career with a 5.50 ERA, 48 strikeouts and 39 walks across 75.1 innings pitched.
