Jahmai Jones Injury News & Updates
Jul 29, 2023
Optioned to Nashville
The Brewers optioned Jones to Triple-A Nashville on Saturday.
ANALYSIS
With the acquisition of Carlos Santana from Pittsburgh, Jones will be forced off the Brewers' active roster to clear a spot for Santana. After a hot start to his career as a Brewer, Jones cooled off significantly and is just 2-for-10 at the plate this season.
Jul 24, 2023
Getting start at DH
Jones is starting at designated hitter and batting eighth in Monday's contest versus the Reds.
ANALYSIS
The right-handed hitting Jones is getting the call at DH over the left-handed hitting Jesse Winker against Reds righty Graham Ashcraft, who has fared better versus lefties this season. It's only Jones' second start in eight games since being recalled from Triple-A Nashville.
Jul 16, 2023
Rejoins big-league team
The Brewers recalled Jones from Triple-A Nashville on Sunday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
ANALYSIS
After being sent down earlier in the week, Jones will return with Brian Anderson (back) landing on the 10-day injured list. While Jones put together a respectable .292/.427/.542 line in 62 games with the Dodgers' Triple-A affiliate earlier this season, he's not starting Sunday and the Brewers don't seemed inclined to give him a serious look as a regular.
Jul 10, 2023
Sent down to Triple-A
Jones was optioned to Triple-A Nashville on Monday, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
ANALYSIS
Jones fared well during his week with the big club, but he wasn't playing much and will now return to the minors. The Brewers will announce a corresponding move prior to the start of the second half.
Jul 3, 2023
Catches on with Milwaukee
Jones signed a major-league contract with the Brewers and was added to the 26-man active roster ahead of Monday's game against the Cubs.
ANALYSIS
Before he opted out of his minor-league deal with the Dodgers over the weekend, the 25-year-old infielder has spent the entirety of the 2023 season at Triple-A Oklahoma City and put together a .292/.427/.542 slash line over 263 plate appearances. Jones will now get the opportunity to return to the big leagues with the Brewers, who are in need of added infield depth in the short term after Brian Anderson was placed on the paternity list Monday. Jones could end up serving as a short-side platoon player while he's up with the big club.
Jul 1, 2023
Opts out of deal
Jones opted out of his contract and was released by the Dodgers on Saturday, Alex Freedman of the Oklahoma City Dodgers reports.
ANALYSIS
Jones has been solid in Triple-A this season, slashing .292/.427/.542 with nine homers and 34 RBI through 263 plate appearances. He should have no problem finding another organization willing to take him in and could even reach the majors if his performance holds up.
Mar 13, 2023
Reassigned to MiLB camp
Jones was reassigned Monday to minor-league camp by the Dodgers.
ANALYSIS
Jones was trying to win a spot on the Dodgers' bench this spring, but a .067/.125/.067 slash in 16 Cactus League plate appearance didn't help things. The former Angels and Orioles prospect will all but assuredly open the 2023 season with Triple-A Oklahoma City.
Mar 6, 2023
Back in action for spring training
Jones (elbow) has appeared in five of the Dodgers' Cactus League games to date, going 0-for-8 with a walk and a run scored.
ANALYSIS
Jones has seen reps at second base in all five of his appearances, so he looks to have made a full recovery from the Tommy John surgery he underwent in late May of last season. The 25-year-old was once a prospect of some repute when he was coming up through the Angels' system, but injuries and poor performance during his time in the majors in 2021 and at the Triple-A level prompted the Orioles to release him last June. Jones joined the Dodgers on a minor-league pact last August and will likely open the upcoming campaign at Triple-A Oklahoma City.
Aug 8, 2022
Catches on with Dodgers
Jones (elbow) signed a minor-league contract with the Dodgers on July 23 and was placed on the full-season minor-league injured list.
ANALYSIS
Jones was released by the Orioles in early June, a few days after he underwent season-ending Tommy John surgery. By signing with the Dodgers, Jones will have the ability to conduct his rehab process in a team structure, and depending on how quickly he's able to start throwing again, he could be back to full health for spring training. Jones, 25, appeared in 29 games in the majors between stops with the Angels and Orioles in 2020 and 2021 and slashed .212/.339/.343 in 118 plate appearances at Triple-A Norfolk this season before being cut loose by Baltimore.
Jun 4, 2022
Clears release waivers
Jones (elbow) cleared unconditional release waivers and became a free agent Saturday, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Jones underwent Tommy John surgery last week and will now hit free agency after being released by Baltimore. Since the 24-year-old was designated for assignment while hurt, the Orioles were forced to place him on release waivers after he went unclaimed on waivers. However, Jones will have the option to re-sign with the Orioles now that he's officially a free agent.
Jun 3, 2022
Placed on release waivers
Jones (elbow) was placed on unconditional release waivers by the Orioles on Friday.
ANALYSIS
Jones was designated for assignment by the Orioles last weekend, and the team had to either trade him or release him since he's currently injured. If the 24-year-old goes unclaimed on release waivers, he'll have the option of re-signing with the Orioles.
May 28, 2022
Designated for assignment
Jones (elbow) was designated for assignment by the Orioles on Saturday.
ANALYSIS
Jones has been at Triple-A Norfolk to begin the season, but he underwent Tommy John surgery Friday and will likely miss the rest of the year. The 24-year-old will now lose his spot on the Orioles' 40-man roster but will likely remain in the organization if he goes unclaimed on waivers.
May 27, 2022
Undergoes Tommy John surgery
Jones (elbow) underwent successful Tommy John surgery Friday, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Jones was placed on the 7-day minor-league injured list in mid-May due to right elbow inflammation, and he'll miss significant time following Friday's procedure. While position players don't usually require as much recovery time following Tommy John surgery, he'll require several months to recover, and it seems likely that he'll be sidelined for the remainder of the 2022 season.
May 13, 2022
Out with elbow inflammation
Jones was placed on the 7-day injured list for Triple-A Norfolk on Friday due to right elbow inflammation, Andy Kostka of The Baltimore Sun reports.
ANALYSIS
Jones has been with Norfolk since the start of the season, hitting a modest .212/.339/.343 with two homers and two steals through 27 games. He'll need to get healthy and then improve his performance level if he's to push for a return to the majors.
Mar 27, 2022
Optioned to Triple-A
Jones was optioned to Triple-A Norfolk on Sunday, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Jones was in the mix for a major-league roster spot this spring, and he performed well in Grapefruit League action by going 5-for-14 with three doubles, four runs, an RBI, two walks and five strikeouts across seven appearances. He'll begin the year in the minors but should be in consideration for a call-up at some point in 2022.
Oct 2, 2021
Retreats to bench
Jones isn't starting Saturday's game against Toronto.
ANALYSIS
Jones has gone hitless with a walk and four strikeouts in his last nine plate appearances, and he'll be on the bench for the third time in the last four games. Pat Valaika will shift to second base while Richie Martin starts at shortstop.
Oct 1, 2021
Not starting Friday
Jones will be on the bench Friday against Toronto, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Jones has now started every other game at second base for the last nine games. Pat Valaika starts at the keystone Friday, but Jones should return Saturday if the pattern continues.
Sep 29, 2021
Not starting Wednesday
Jones isn't starting Wednesday's game against the Red Sox.
ANALYSIS
Jones has gone 0-for-5 with a walk and two strikeouts across his last three appearances, and he'll be on the bench for the third time in the last five games. Pat Valaika will shift to second base while Richie Martin starts at shortstop.
Sep 24, 2021
Takes seat Friday
Jones isn't starting Friday's game against the Rangers, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Jones started at second base in Thursday's win over the Rangers and went 1-for-3 with a pair of strikeouts. Pat Valaika will start at the keystone while Richie Martin starts at shortstop.
Sep 22, 2021
Rejoins major-league club
Jones was recalled from Triple-A Norfolk on Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
The 24-year-old was demoted to Triple-A last week but will quickly rejoin the Orioles with Ramon Urias (groin) heading to the injured list. Jones is hitting .164/.207/.218 with three doubles, three RBI, five runs and a stolen base in 18 games this season.
Sep 16, 2021
Back to minors
Jones was optioned to Triple-A Norfolk on Thursday, Nathan Ruiz of The Baltimore Sun reports.
ANALYSIS
Jones has been absent from the starting lineup for three straight games, though he did score the game-winning run as a pinch-runner in Thursday's game. His demotion will should allow both Ramon Urias and Kelvin Gutierrez to see more regular playing time moving forward.
Sep 15, 2021
Not in Wednesday's lineup
Jones isn't starting Wednesday's game against the Yankees, Nathan Ruiz of The Baltimore Sun reports.
ANALYSIS
Jones has gone 0-for-4 with two strikeouts across his last two appearances, and he'll be out of the lineup for a third straight game. Ramon Urias will shift to second base while Kelvin Gutierrez starts at the hot corner.
Sep 11, 2021
Records first big-league steal
Jones went 1-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base in Friday's 6-3 win over Toronto.
ANALYSIS
It's the first big-league steal in Jones' career. He's shown some speed in the minors, although he hasn't topped 10 steals in either 2019 or 2021 after reaching 20 in each year between 2015 and 2018. Jones is slashing .176/.222/.235 with three RBI, four runs scored and three doubles in 54 plate appearances since he was called up by Baltimore. He has emerged as a near-everyday presence at second base.
Sep 6, 2021
Handling everyday role
Jones will start at second base and bat seventh Monday against the Royals.
ANALYSIS
Since both he and Kelvin Gutierrez were called up from Triple-A Norfolk on Aug. 23, Jones appears to have won out in the battle for an everyday spot in the Baltimore lineup. Though both will crack the lineup in Monday's series opener while Ramon Urias (upper leg) hits the bench, Jones had started nine times in Baltimore's last 11 games, while Gutierrez picked up only seven starts. Jones is slashing .176/.222/.265 since his promotion.
Aug 28, 2021
Not starting Saturday
Jones isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Rays, Nathan Ruiz of The Baltimore Sun reports.
ANALYSIS
Jones had started each of the last four games, and he went 2-for-17 with a double, two runs and seven strikeouts. Jorge Mateo (back/hip) will return to the lineup at the keystone, while Ramon Urias will start at shortstop.
Aug 23, 2021
Moves up to big leagues
The Orioles recalled Jones from Triple-A Norfolk on Monday, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Baltimore will shake things up in the infield after losing its 18th straight game Sunday, bringing in Jones and Kelvin Gutierrez from Norfolk while sending Richie Martin to Triple-A and designating Maikel Franco for assignment. Franco's removal from the 40-man roster should open up reps at third base for Ramon Urias and Gutierrez, while Jones will be in the mix for playing time at the keystone if the Orioles elect to shift the hot-hitting Jorge Mateo over to shortstop. Over 289 plate appearances with Norfolk on the season, Jones has slashed .238/.329/.417 with 10 home runs and nine stolen bases.
Jun 8, 2021
Returns from injured list
Jones (oblique) was activated off the minor-league injured list Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Jones hit the injured list in mid-May with a strained left oblique, an injury which was originally expected to keep him out for days rather than weeks. He played just six games for Triple-A Norfolk prior to suffering the injury but could make his case for a big-league call-up if he hits well upon his return, as the Orioles have turned to players like Stevie Wilkerson and Pat Valaika at second base in recent weeks.
May 14, 2021
Out with oblique strain
Jones hit the minor-league injured list Friday with a strained left oblique, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The Orioles don't seem particularly concerned about the issue, with reports suggesting his absence should last days, not weeks. He hit .227/.333/.591 in 23 games for Triple-A Norfolk prior to suffering the injury.
Mar 26, 2021
Sent to minors
Jones was optioned to Triple-A Norfolk on Friday, Rich Dubroff of BaltimoreBaseball.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Jones was traded from the Angels to the Orioles at the beginning of February and appeared in 17 spring games, but he'll begin the season in the minors. The 23-year-old hit .143 with one home run and four RBI this spring and has appeared in just three major-league games during his career.
Feb 1, 2021
Bound for Baltimore
Jones was traded from the Angels to the Orioles on Monday in exchange for Alex Cobb, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Jones made his big-league debut at the end of last season, grabbing three hits in seven trips to the plate. The 23-year-old could probably use some more time in the minors, however, as he's yet to appear in a Triple-A game and hit a modest .234/.308/.324 over a full season at Double-A Mobile in 2019. When he does eventually arrive in the majors for good, he projects as much more of a role player than a star, as he's a good athlete but doesn't have any above-average tools other than his speed.
Sep 26, 2020
Recalled for first big-league start
Jones was recalled from the alternate training site Saturday and is starting at second base against the Dodgers, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The 23-year-old will bat eighth in the first start of his career as he takes the roster spot of Luis Rengifo (hamstring), who was placed on the injured list. Jones had a brief stint on the active roster earlier this year but made only one appearance as a pinch runner. Jones spent the 2019 campaign at Double-A and posted a .234/.308/.324 slash line with five homers and nine stolen bases in 130 games.
Sep 2, 2020
Returns to alternate site
Jones was optioned to the alternate training site Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
The 23-year-old was recalled for his first stint in the majors Monday, but he didn't have a plate appearance during his brief time with the club. Jones will hope to receive another opportunity later in the season.
Aug 31, 2020
Receives first callup
Jones' contract was selected by the Angels on Monday.
ANALYSIS
Jones has yet to play above Double-A, and he doesn't seem to have conquered that level yet, as he struggled to a .234/.308/.324 slash line in a full season for Mobile last year. While he'll likely receive a handful of opportunities for the last-place Angels down the stretch, it's hard to envision him immediately stepping into a fantasy-relevant role.
Jul 23, 2020
Not included on active roster
Jones is not included on the Angels' Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com.
ANALYSIS
Jones has yet to play beyond the Double-A level, so his exclusion from the Opening Day roster is no surprise. The 22-year-old was expected to start the campaign with Triple-A Salt Lake before spring training was suspended, but he'll instead head to the team's alternate training site.
May 19, 2020
Could receive first callup
Jones is a candidate to earn big-league playing time in 2020 if the season takes place with expanded rosters, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Jones slashed .250/.250/.450 with a home run and a double across 20 Cactus League plate appearances before play was suspended. He was optioned to Triple-A in March and was expected to open the season there. However, with the minor-league season in limbo and a potential major-league campaign likely to include expanded rosters and a 20-man taxi squad, Jones could feasibly find his way to the Angels at some point during the campaign.
Mar 10, 2020
Heading to Triple-A
Jones was optioned to Triple-A Salt Lake on Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Jones struggled in 130 games at the Double-A level last season, hitting just .234/.308/.324. Given that he'd already played 48 games at that level in 2018, however, the Angels are apparently content to have him climb the ladder despite his poor performance at the plate.
