Adam Jones is 60% through his 2nd-full season in the Majors. The improvement in his play is obvious to see.
In 2008, Jones played in 132 games. He had 477 at-bats, with a .711 OPS. This included 129 hits, 61 runs, 21 doubles, 7 triples, 9 homers, 57 rbi, 23 walks, and 108 k’s.
In 2009, Jones has played in 92 games. He has had 372 at-bats, with a .850 OPS. This includes 111 hits, 64 runs, 19 doubles, 2 triples, 17 homers, 59 rbi, 25 walks, and 79 k’s.
Jones, who turns 24 on Saturday, is still several-years away from reaching his prime.
Watching him team with Markakis, Wieters, and Riemold for the foreseeable future is going to be fun to watch.
