It's a very fair question to ask if it's possible for a hitter to become much more disciplined at the plate. My personal feeling is that it should be with the right coaching and also with the desire to. Maybe hitters are just who they are and you live with that. With Adam Jones, however, and I admit that it is nothing more than just my opinion, is that he simply did not want to change his approach. That doesn't mean I didn't appreciate him and what he did for the O's, I rooted for him like any other O's fan, it's just my honest take on the situation.
