Mlb Notes Dodgers Give Up On Jones

Jones, 31, came to Los Angeles as a five-time All-Star, who has won 10 straight Gold Gloves with Atlanta. Andruw Jones, a $ 36.2 million, with the bust of Los Angeles Dodgers, was released by the team Thursday. Announced as the answer to Dodgers hitting power vacuum when he signed the richest contract of his two years in December 2007, Jones was injured part of last season and has been largely ineffective otherwise, hitting only, 158 with three home slopes and 14 RBIs in 75 games.
