Claimed by Yankees The Yankees claimed Jones off waivers from the Brewers on Wednesday.

Optioned to Nashville The Brewers optioned Jones to Triple-A Nashville on Saturday.

Impact 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.

Getting start at DH Jones is starting at designated hitter and batting eighth in Monday's contest versus the Reds.

Impact 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.

Rejoins big-league team The Brewers recalled Jones from Triple-A Nashville on Sunday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Impact 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.

JULY 16, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Sent down to Triple-A Jones was optioned to Triple-A Nashville on Monday, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Impact 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.

JULY 10, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

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.

Impact 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.

JULY 3, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

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.

Impact 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.

JULY 1, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

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.

Impact 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.

Clears release waivers Jones (elbow) cleared unconditional release waivers and became a free agent Saturday, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Impact 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.

Designated for assignment Jones (elbow) was designated for assignment by the Orioles on Saturday.

Impact 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.

Undergoes Tommy John surgery Jones (elbow) underwent successful Tommy John surgery Friday, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Impact 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 27, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

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.

Impact 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.

MARCH 27, 2022 • MLB.COM

Optioned to Triple-A Jones was optioned to Triple-A Norfolk on Sunday, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Impact 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.
