    My guess is that he ends up in Southern California. The Dodgers, Angels, and Padres would be interested. The White Sox are a possibility too.

    Schuerholz is no dummy.He hit around .235 after the all star break in 2006 and then follows that up with a miserable .222 in 2007.:60:

    Jones never has advanced at the plate that's for sure. He IS the best defensive center fielder I have ever seen. I don't think the Braves should re-sign him but they will not get anyone who can go get it like he has. Why anyone would ever throw him a fastball is beyond me. Hook, Hook,Hook. when he's at bat. Sometimes he actually screws himself into the ground trying to hit the curve.

    He has the worst balance in the history of baseball. I bet he goes to the Red Sox.

    The only way Jones plays in the Bronx is if Tori Hunter decides he dosen't want to be a Yankee. Hunter is the player that the Yankees will go after.
