What to do about Adam Jones pending free agency

[Dark Helmet]

Adam Jones should retire as an Oriole. Some things go beyond money and draft picks.

How about we let someone else pay too much for his declining years then sign him to a one day contract when he hangs them up for good?

I like AJ but not sure if he will  be worth the money.

I see AJ getting an AAV of 12-5 M for 3-4 years in FA 2018.

Like I said, sometimes it's more than just stats. Hell, Manny will be gone...Hardy will be gone...Tillman will be gone...Gausman will be too expensive (I'm sure many can't wait to ponder what they can get in a trade for him). Honestly, I guess the real question is...Why would Adam want to stay here?

I'm disappointed, when I saw the title of this Post I thought it was going to be a discussion on how we could trade Jones before his value goes to zero at free agency

He has been in steady decline, last year he had a DRS of NEGATIVE 10 and an OPS+ of 95.... that's a below average player

I don't think it will take much to sign Adam Jones in 2019, I'm not sure who will want to.

Let him go.  I'm not looking forward to his remaining time here as it is.

Pay him and let him retire an Oriole.
