Mike is a Monday Morning QB a lot of times. Jones has been playing extremely well since the All Star Break so that means he's good, in Mike's opinion.
The guys you are comparing him to are good young players though who don't make much money yet, and I don't consider Jones' contract an issue - it's only $5 million per season, and he has only 1 year left.
He did the same thing when Pods came back, and the Sox swept a doubleheader from Detroit.
MIKE: Dey won it in 05 cuz Pods was in dere all da time. He wuz hurt last year and dis year, and dey aint won nuttin.
FRED: You're right, Mike. They're 13-9 with Pods in the lineup.
MIKE: Who is dis Jerry Owens anyway? Shouldn't a black guy hit more homers? I'm not saying, I'm just saying.
