Braves send other Jones down: Chipper Jones is back in the lineup for the Braves. Jones, who missed eight consecutive starts with a strained right quadriceps and expected to be placed on the DL on Tuesday, instead returned to the lineup against Philadelphia on Tuesday night. He joined, Mark Kotsay, who came off the DL to start in center field. The Braves optioned outfielder Brandon Jones to Triple-A Richmond to clear a spot for Kotsay. (Updated 07/01/2008).

Fantasy Analysis
Jones has pop in his bat and long-term potential, but he will bide his time back in the minors for the month of July. Consider him a sleeper again in August or September, but his Fantasy value figures to be limited to NL-only leagues even if he returns as a full-timer for the Braves. (Updated 07/01/2008).
