Jackson's contract was selected by Oakland on Thursday, Matt Kawahara of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Jackson posted a 1.35 ERA, 11:2 K:BB and 1.05 WHIP in 6.2 innings across six Cactus League appearances this spring, and he'll be rewarded with a spot in the Opening Day bullpen. The right-hander should serve mainly as a low-leverage reliever as he prepares to make his major-league debut.
