Adam Jones....how soon to draft? Is this THE year? (1 Viewer)

[eoMMan]

CBS has his ADP at 146.

Is this the year he stays healthy and has a BIG year (.280 average, 30 homers, 20 steals, 100 RBI's, 100 runs, etc.)?

I took him at #88....happy with my decision.

Young potential breakout OF's - Pacman, Gonzalez, Bruce, McCutchen, Reimold

I like Pacman over all of them, by a lot.

Jones will have a much better surrounding cast around him this year. Trembley is either going to bat him 2nd, between Roberts and Markakis, or 5th, between Tejada and Wieters. Either way, he should have more opportunities to score some points.

He worked out at the Athletes Performance Institute in AZ this past offseason and reported to camp in great shape. If he stays healthy, I think he will do much better than his ADP.

Watch out for Reimold. His heel still isn't 100% and he had surgery over 6 months ago. There is some concern about this situation in the Orioles camp.

I like Jones a lot. I took him at 74.

I drafted him. Still waiting to be happy about it.

He's a keeper on my squad, and has been on my bench for the past week. It's April; he'll be fine.

This guy has been terrible and other than the first two months of last year has showed nothing. He was cut today from my squad to make room for others. I should have never drafted him

He's finally been hitting the ball a bit this week, but the power and speed still aren't there. If he doesn't turn it around by the end of May, I might be cutting him too.

You have confused this guy with NFL turd Adam Jones.(I know you didn't do that, but c'mon. Did you feel hip/cool/in to refer to the Orioles one as "Pacman?")

Nice to see him hit well this past week. Let's hope this is the start of the turn around.

Until he improves his plate discipline, he's nothing but Jeff Francoeur with the potential for a few more stolen bases.
