ARLINGTON -- Center fielder Andruw Jones, a five-time All-Star and 10-time Gold Glove winner, is joining the Rangers outfield.
Jones, who was released by the Los Angeles Dodgers earlier this winter, has agreed to a Minor League contract worth $500,000. Jones can also make up to $1 million in bonuses if he reaches 620 plate appearances.
"He's certainly been a superstar for quite a few years," Rangers manager Ron Washington said. "These past few years have been down for him, but I like the fact that he brings 10 Gold Gloves, he's a winner and he fits well into our clubhouse. He has something to prove. We've got him in camp now, we'll see where he goes from here."
Jones spent 12 years with the Braves, where he developed a reputation for being one of the best defensive center fielders in the game. But he also became an outstanding offensive player as well. Between 1998-2007, Jones hit .266 with an average of 97 runs scored, 34 home runs and 103 RBIs. His best season was 2005, when he hit .263 with 51 home runs and 128 RBIs.

He might be out of his prime, but the ranger got him on a really good deal. I am very excited about it.

Yeh it makes sense to put him even as a bench player honestly. For that cheap of a price, I'm sure he can do something for the team. Plus he'll put some fans in seats if he does make it.
