Manager Buck Showalter said he'd evaluate Jones on a day-by-day basis and didn't rule out the possibility of using his young center fielder in an emergency situation.

This isn't the first time Jones has missed significant time late in the season. He was slowed last September by a sprained ankle after missing all of August 2008 after he broke his left...
