Should Chipper Jones play if he’s not 100 percent?
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Just two days after saying his injured quadricep was not healing as fast as anticipated, third baseman Chipper Jones returned to the lineup Tuesday, as the Braves opened a three-game series against the division-leading Phillies. But should he have been?
Is this series important enough for Jones to risk an early return? Or would you rather seem him sit out until he’s completely healthy, even if it means a stint on the disabled list?
After Tuesday’s win, Philadelphia now leads the Braves by five games in the NL East. Clearly, the Braves aren’t out of the race, but if Chipper were to go down for an extended period of time, they’d be in big trouble.
So is it worth the risk?
