209 AB, 33 hits, 3 homers, 21 runs, 14 RBI, 76 K, .158/.256/.249 ... .505
OPS
He re****ted to camp this spring weighing nearly 250 lbs.
He was hurt, he sucked, or both...
He had trouble adjusting to playing for a team that isn't the Braves.
He has never responded well to coaches' advice anyway.
Whatever the real reason, Andruw Jones' first $18M season with the Dodgers
was undeniably a failure. The Dodgers' GM, when asked if he thought the
$36.2M two-year deal was a bad move, answered that he'll let us know in a
year.
For perspective, his career averages in Atlanta were .263/.342/.497.
In what I'll call his prime (98-06), the numbers were .270/.347/.513.
