Can Braves win a game without Chipper Jones? | Jeff Schultz - AJC - The issue is whether the Braves are too dependent on one player to be successful. They’ve now played 47 games. They’re 21-8 when Jones has started or made at least one plate appearance and 5-13 when he hasn’t played at all. Discounting late-game appearances, the Braves are 19-5 (.792) when Jones starts and 7-16 (.304) when he doesn’t. A winning percentage drop-off without Jones would be expected. Just not 488 points.
