Cardinals prospect Ryan Jackson added three more hits on Tuesday to raise his average to .372 through 31 games for Triple-A Memphis. He also has 11 RBI and a .487 slugging percentage.

The 25-year-old would be one of the first infielders called up to the majors if a spot opened up, MLB.com reports.

"He really took a great attitude with him when he was sent down," manager Mike Matheny said of Jackson, who has played second, third and short for Memphis this year. "He realizes he's right there. Where Pete Kozma was a year ago, he's even ahead of that in the fact that he's taking real advantage of the opportunity he has there. He's done a real good job."
