Chipper 'Caged'

You can't make up the laundry list of injuries Chipper Jones has experienced over his injury-plagued career. But this one takes the cake. Off the top of the batting cage! Seriously.

Fantasy Impact: Jones can't stay healthy - it's even bad luck. If he ends up taking his .414 batting average to the disabled list your team is going to take a hit. The injury, however, helps his chances to become the first player to hit .400 or better since 1941. Fewer at bats means fewer chances to make outs, which occur more frequently over time.
