Last season, Braves OF Chipper Jones hurt his hands during a collision on May 11 in 
Pittsburgh.
According to MLB.com, while at a team ‘fan fest,’ Jones said his hands stopped hurting three weeks ago - at which point he resumed ‘baseball related activities.’
Jones missed time last season with a variety of injuries, ranging from a groin pull to a strained oblique and pain in his hands.

If Chipper would have stopped masterbating he would have felt better months ago.
He’s a cunning linguist not a master debator…
Yeah … keep his hands off his groin and he’ll be much better off.
Off the subject but…am I the only one excited to start playing Beat The Streak again on MLB.com? Anybody else play that game?
That game is so frustrating, I either lose early or I forget to set the batter for the day.
lol longest I went was like a week n a half. I’m gonna win this year watch!
Matt,
Isn’t his name Larry???? Not Chipper….. come on Matt get it right :-)
Yawn … Chipper used to be great. Now he’s just another broken down vet on a third place team.
How quickly the mighty have fallen eh? Anyone else think the Nats will pass the Braves for 3rd in the east this year?
Are we talking about the same Braves? If Hampton is anywhere near his old form, the Mets might be in trouble, Throw in Schmoltz, Hudson and Glavine and they have some decents arms. Teixiera, Francour, McCann, Escobar, Chipper, Kotsay can be a dangerous lineup, solid throughout.
That’s foolish, Chipper had the 4th best OPS in all of baseball at 1.010 behind only Arod, Papi and Magglio.
And it’s not like it was limited ABs, it was 513.
He’s the guy we love to hate, but give him a little respect, geez.
Well, Hampton hasn’t been healthy in 3 years, so slim chance he’s effective in 2008.
Hudson tailed off down the stretch, another pitcher Billy Beane dumped after he used him up (it’s a long line, Koch, Foulke, Mulder, Hudson).
Smoltz is 42 and still decent.
We all saw how awful Glavine was down the stretch (face it Tommy you can’t get by on simply nibbling the corners anymore) so he should be another poor investment by the Braves.
Jo Jo Reyes? eh!
And did you say Kotsay would be part of a solid lineup? Kotsay has awful back issues and he’s been well below the league average offensively for 4 of the past 5 seasons. Like Glavine, this is more money being flushed down the toilet.
The Braves are on the downswing kids, stop being so afraid of them!!

funny you say this because he said the exact same thing about his wife once.
He definitely brings some life to the booth…… Those three make a great team!
This is what Tim K’s chat said about the Mets getting Santana…
When are the Mets going to swoop in and pluck Santana away from the Twins?
Tim Kurkjian: That is a good question. To me the Mets need him even more than the Yankees need him, and much more than the Red Sox need him. But people around the game have been telling me for months that the Mets might not have what it takes to get Santana, unless they are willing to get rid of Reyes, and they are not going to do that from all indications. The Mets slide last year were due to a lot of factors, but none was bigger than their shiortage of starting pitching. I do not know where Santana is going to go, but my guess would be that it is not going to be the Mets.
I dislike Tim K intensely as he is generally dismissive of the Mets all the time. In terms of his latest statements:’
1) I realize many people say the Mets need Santana the most, even some Mets fans, but I don’t see how the Yankees’ current rotation is any better than what the Mets have now.
2) What is this “willing to get rid of Reyes” bit? Maybe it’s just an accidental use of a negative phrase, but if not then he just has no clue.
3) Yes, the Mets’ slide last year was due to a lot of factors but it was not the starting pitching that was the biggest culprit. It was the bullpen, Tim K! Of course I wouldn’t expect him to know much about the Mets, but he should avoid trying to look smart by giving the pat answers.
4) He never says why HE thinks the Mets won’t get Santana. He only says that people around the league have told him the Mets don’t have what it takes to get him. So is he just basing his opinion on what others tell him? Can’t he think for himself? Or is he like some of the other Yankee worshipers who just feel there is no way the Mets can get a premium player if the Yankees want him?
Whether the Mets get Santana I don’t know. It’s up to both Bill Smith and Santana at this point and Smith’s indecisiveness can lead to a semi-permanent stalemate. But I bet Tim K will never concede that Santana prefers to play for the Mets over the Yankees. That is inconceivable to him as well as many other baseball people and fans, even some Mets fans.
Keith is on of a kind!
Matt, can we a grass roots going to retire #17?
Did Johan get announced yet?
one of a kind, thank you
It is just to easy to maker fun of Larry on this one….I won’t even bother
He’ll just hurt something else this year. Chipper getting injured is about as sure a thing as the sun rising in the east everyday.
Chipper feeling better?
Well, whoop-de-damn-doo…
