Most dudes haven't been playing 160+ since they were 18, tho...
Oh I definitely think he's got a lot of work to do to crack the rotation... He's pretty much gonna have to blow the doors off of SpringTraining and play at a high level throughout the season to keep a job... If he goes into a prolonged slump he's not gonna be on a long leash...Originally Posted by wildKYcat
and Nowitness, of course you know better than i do, but don't you think he's got a lot of work to do to crack that OF rotation so-to-speak? i mean...you just going to throw him out there before Marlon or anyone else? he got a spring training invite, right? surely.

Jones get OF nod over Catalanotto
The last decision to be made on the 25-man roster came down to the final outfield spot.
The Rangers went with Andruw Jones over Frank Catalanotto. The Rangers wanted Jones, a right-handed power hitter, to be a part-time designated hitter and outfielder against lefties in a division stacked with left-handed pitching.
Catalanotto's contract - $4 million for 2009, $2 million buyout - ultimately did not get in the way of Jones even though some within the organization thought owner Tom Hicks might balk at paying Catalanotto just to create a roster spot.
"I feel good," said Jones, who hit the game-winning home run Wednesday. "The situation is going to be spread around how we're getting in the games. Having [hitting coach] Rudy [Jaramillo] there, he's going to keep you mentally focused."
