	Andruw Jones - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Andruw Rudolf Jones [pronounced An-drew] (born April 23, 1977, in Willemstad, Curaçao, in the Netherlands Antilles) is an outfielder for the Atlanta Braves.
		Andruw Jones signed with the Atlanta Braves organization as a free agent in 1993 at the age of 16.
		Still only 22 years-old, Jones had similar numbers in 1999, and though he was a dependable (he played all 162 games that season) and good player, many began to wonder if or when he would live up to the potential that they believed he possessed.

	(AP) Braves' Andruw Jones Tries to Keep Pace \| WKRN.COM (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Jones has been under intense scrutiny since his second year as a pro, when he had 25 homers, 100 RBIs and 56 stolen bases in Class A. In 1996, while still only 19, he bolted through three levels of minor league ball and was called up to the defending World Series champion Braves in mid-August.
		Jones is a witty presence in the clubhouse, shuffling around from one end to the other doling out insults and mock criticism.
		Jones is one of the most durable players in the game, never playing fewer than 153 games in a full season.

	Along came Jones - Salon
		This Andruw Jones, the one whose home run binge gives him a realistic chance of spoiling Derrek Lee's Triple Crown dreams, is who the world expected to see when, at age 19, he homered in Game 7 of the 1996 NLCS, making him the youngest man ever to homer in a postseason game.
		Jones' hitting eye has been so bad that he was probably the only Brave that didn't complain when Eric Gregg called every pitch inside the batter's box a strike during Livan Hernandez's record-breaking "performance" in the 1997 NLCS.
		Jones might be the best defensive centerfielder since Mays -- easily the best these relatively young eyes have seen -- but expecting Jones to be Mays fell somewhere between optimism and delusion.

		Andruw will, too; I doubt his BA will be high enough to keep him hitting HRs at a 600 HR pace once he's past 35.

		Andruw Jones is trying to cut down on his strikeouts this season.
		But given Jones' career-long tendency to endure long slumps, like the one that as of June 10 had taken his batting average down to.249, it's far too early to be projecting his season stats.
		When it comes to personal stats, Jones would rather end the season with less than 110 strikeouts, which would mark his lowest total since 2000, when he struck out 100 times and hit a career-best.303.

	The Baseball Analysts: The Shifting Swings of A-Rod and Andruw: Part 2
		The real significance for A-Rod's and Jones' adjustments has much less to do with how far they are moving forward or how wide their stance is and much more to do with how those things allow them to initiate the swing.
		A-Rod and Jones can change their stance, stride, or anything else they want as long as they are prepared to launch their swings like they did in 2005.
		Andruw was often victimized by the down and away breaking ball with his more upright stance, but he doesn't really suffer from that anymore, and I believe it is largely due to him being able to pick up the spin, break and angle better due to his more fixed perspective.
