Adam Jones......fluke or just getting warmed up?

[EricInCT]

Adam Jones burst onto the scene last year for the Os......I had a ton of his cards and it was a huge success seeing that he has only one true auto'd rookie card.

in case you don't remember his last year:

.277 AVG
473 at bats
19 HRs
70 RBIs
10 SB


Wondering if he will flounder at 15 HRs or break out at 30 HRs. Anyone hear anything about him in the offseason......besides he is hurt......again. (ankle I believe this time).

Definitely not a fluke. One of the best deal the O's have made in a while. Big talent in the making.

When he was here in Seattle I thought his biggest weakness was in the field. He's got a major league bat. And clearly his fielding is adequate, winning a gg last year.

imho


break out is imminent

Agreed. I see a few more GG's and a few AS appearances in his future.

If he's healthy for a full season, I could easily see:

.300 avg
30 2B's
5 3B's
30 HR's
110 RBI's
20 SB's

He's gonna be the next Torii Hunter, without the Gold Glove Defense ... yet.

He strikes out 33% of the time so I am not sold on the average.......but I think if he stays healthy (550 at bats) he could approach .275 / 25 2Bs / 25 HRs and 85 RBIs.

can't wait to see what he can do this year.

I was able to get him in round 10 or later in all six of my leagues last year. Don't think that'll happen this year ...

I'd settler for either of those - I'm sitting on a stash of his UD PP RC Autos that I'll be trying to move this year.
