Justin Jones was released today.

He played all of 2007 at age 22. He had a solid season this year. He'd be worth picking up. He does not need to be on the 40 man.

i have a cousin named justin jones, true story.

He was released because he blew out his knee playing basketball and won't pitch at all in 2008.

Really? Rotoworld needs to get their crap together. Even so why not? He'd be 24 at the end and will be in AA/AAA. He's still got upside, albeit not as much as he did a few years ago.

I wouldn't mind bringing him back and seeing if he can regain form.

Justin Jones, who was released by the Nationals earlier in the day, blew out his knee playing basketball this winter, GM Jim Bowden said.

 

That explains it. Bowden didn't suggest it, but Jones could be re-signed to a minor league deal.
