Jones to take a left turn into Albuquerque

Tacoma Rainier outfielder Adam Jones (WI '04) made the roster for the Pacific Coast League team that will play at the Triple-A All-Star Game.

It looks like Jones will be one of the starters:
The outfield consists of a trio of fast-rising prospects. Adam Jones has slugged 17 homers and driven in 58 runs for the Tacoma Rainiers, amply demonstrating why he is considered to be one of the top farmhands in the Mariners' system at just 21 years old. He will be flanked by Salt Lake's Terry Evans (the only 30-30 player in the Minors last season) and Tucson's Alex Romero, who became the first player in the league to reach the 100-hit mark on Wednesday. Backing up this highly skilled triumvirate will be Las Vegas' Delwyn Young and Sean Barker of Colorado Springs.
