A.Jones+Baseball= Atlanta Braves | Brave$$$'s Blog

Folks anyone can have a bad year.......uhm Glavine......in any case who ever gets A.Jones will benefit greatly.We pay their salaries,yes I know, but its entertainment folks!!!! Look I would gladly take Jones to come down for the Marlins but we just can't afford him....We all know that he is not going to get more than $13 or $14 mill a year if he does it will be on a short contract. The Braves have made a huge mistake by letting him go....I do agree that "BorASS" is a reason that the Braves have let him go...he is and will be a great part of the Braves history...remember he is the youngest player ever to homer in the world series.
All in all I hope the Braves reconsider and I just hope A.Jones stays to a team down south(Braves).Also notice that he hasnot placed his house on the market.WHY???? I don't think that he'll be moving antime soon.....I htink he'll reconsider his asking price and I hope that the Braves take him back.....he does need to take batting lessons and mot importantly drop some weight or he will not cover the outfiels as he used to. Also with Glavine by his side and Smoltz.....WATCH OUT WORLD SERIES 2008!!!!!!

I disagree with you. I wouldn't want Jones. He is a all-or-nothing hitter who doesn't have as much pure power as, lets say, Adam Dunn(another all-or-nothing player) and his range is declining in CF. Not worth the money.

I'd love for him to stay down in Atlanta, but it's just not realistic. Not with his monster contract and the Braves trying to keep Mark Teixera (sp?)

The Braves have a good young team..., Smoltz and Hudson are two of the best pitchers they got and with Glavine...? They'd have a strong 1-2-3. But the questions..., why bring back a guy that hit .225 like Jones did (may be wrong but he destroyed my baseball pool this year!) I say let him go, let him see if he can get $15 mill per year elsewhere, resign Tex and sign a guy like Torii or another fast, reliable baserunner to man CF. They could probably take the Phils in the East!
