Baltimore center fielder Adam Jones looked destined for a breakout 2009 season. Hitting .371 through a couple weeks of his second professional season will turn heads. In today's Orioles-Red Sox game, however, Jones experienced tightness in his hamstring and had to leave the game.
Fantasy Impact: Anyone who's ever owned Eric Byrnes will tell you hamstring injuries are serious matters. They can turn a star-studded fantasy season into a star-crossed one. Jones is best sat for the Orioles next game.

A pulled hammy can easily throw off your game for a long time. Let's see how Jones recovers.
Agreed. A pulled hammy is usually a 50-50 situation in terms of fantasy value. I'd bet Jones' youth and general injury-free history would suggest he's going to be OK. At the same time, this is nothing to sneeze at.
Thanks for reading!
