O's Jones turning heads
Displays of power are becoming commonplace for 23-year-old Adam Jones, whose rapid growth has given the Orioles something to feel good about in a season that's had its share of frustrating moments. "The improvement we saw from the beginning of last year to now is staggering," Yankees outfielder Johnny Damon said. "If he keeps this progression rate going, he's going to be at a few All-Star [games]. If the Orioles put it together, he might even have a chance to challenge for MVP honors. He's that talented."
