News: Two people independently contacted me tonight from Somerset, claiming that they spotted OF Spencer Jones in the dugout. Given Jones’ size, he is easy to spot, so I believe it to be true.

News: I have nothing important to report. Quick commentary: Anyone who follows the minors knows that Triple-A is an offensive haven.
