    I guess my hope at this moment regarding Jones is that we somehow cover him from being exposed further so hopefully we can preserve this rumored trade interest that we had at the deadline for him. What I fear at this point is if we bench him we'll lose all the steam that we built up with him while he was throwing up garbage numbers against garbage teams. If we bench him now and he disappears to the end of the bench where he should be then his trade value will be even lower than it was last summer and may go negative. I don't want that to happen.

    It's all about asset value preservation until the summer now.

    He has an ugly form . He kinda catapults the ball over his head.
