Jahmai Jones Optioned To Triple-A

Baltimore Orioles second baseman Jahmai Jones was optioned to Triple-A Norfolk last Friday, per MASN Sports' Rock Kubatko. The 23-year-old joined a crowded O's infield this spring with just seven big-league plate appearances and managed to slash just .136/.240/.273 throughout the spring, so it is not all that surprising that he got optioned. Ramon Urias […]
