Maybe a rare occasion he’ll see some time there.Maybe he doesn’t care about the perception of how his career ending? Nobody is butthurt over a below average player turning down a trade to their favorite team.Great player, I wanted him to stay in the majors. Thatâs the reason that he turned down the Phillies deal.
After one season with the Arizona Diamondbacks, outfielder Adam Jones is heading across the Pacific Ocean to continue his career in Japan.

Maybe he thought it was an interesting life move? hope he returns to the states after to retire, but who knows, some guys can go on forever in Japan.hmm also saw something from a Japanese site saying something about the Olympics in conection with Jones.
I do wish him well though.Hey the Fresh Prince bailed on Philly and how’d that work out for him? He wound up turning in a .260/.313/.414 line (good for a below-average wRC+ of 87) with 16 home runs in 528 plate appearances. As a result, Jones made the decision to head to Nippon Professional Baseball for a much larger payday.If this is the last we’ve seen of Jones in the majors, he’ll be remembered as a standout with the Orioles for a significant portion of his career. … In Japan, water buffalo is domestic animal throughout the Ryukyuan islands or Okinawa prefecture.Kudos to his agent for getting him that kind of money, at his age, in this climate.when the Orioles were trying to trade him at the deadline to get something for him he invoked his 10 and 5 rights due to his “family” and now he’s off to Japan for 2 yrsHuh, kinda surprising. I can say pretty confidently that he wasn’t going to get a better offer than what Orix gave him, so he was smart to take it.Unfortunately these are probably the cold hard factsâespecially in this era.1. He gets to keep playing the game he loves and experience an entirely new, fascinating culture. Good luck AdamIâm sure theyâll enjoy his presence; and frankly going to Japan sounds terrific. Good for him.should be an interesting story to follow. What is disappointing about that?I think you’re overvaluing what Jones is capable of at this point in his career. More than 95.8% of the world population of water buffalo are kept in Asia, including both river and swamp types. I believe that he still views himself as an everyday player.

MLB has been amazing to myself and my family," Orix plays in Nippon Professional Baseball and has four Japan Series championships, with the most recent coming in 1996. Best of luck to him…always liked him.All-time great Oriole. Keep pushing your narrative, though.Up-root his family from Baltimore to philly? It was nice though that he was able to play against Danny Jansen in late 2018 (back in 2004 when Jones was in the minors with the Mariners’ Wisconsin affiliate, Jansen’s family hosted him for the season).neat story. Jones went without a deal for several months, finally inking a $3MM pact with the Diamondbacks.Even though Jones jumped out to a great start in Arizona, his numbers and his playing time declined as the year progressed. Has it crossed your mind that perhaps he is interested in playing in Japan and wants to enjoy the experience? The deal is … Best of luck to him in Japan.His season wasn’t all that productive, and he also is a defensive liability. I guess I’m the only person on Philly who respects the man and his exploits.Nice of you to say. Good luck to Jones.They changed their name back in 2004. The OBP and Slugging got swapped around.

He rejected the trade from Baltimore to Philly because he could, simple as that.No reason for him, at this point in is career, to be a fourth outfielder (save for personal/family reasons). Adam Jones, my favorite Baltimore Orioles player of all time, is going to Japan. Good luck in Japan.Not the same house or the same team. the ammount of flak i got on the article over the summer was crazy. "[Orix] views me as a valuable piece to help bring their organization back on track and I'm up for the challenge!!" Seemed like he could help out plenty of major league teams.He’s had a pretty good career, it will be interesting to see how he does over in Japan.Jones’ Stat line with the O’s was .279.
