The Baltimore Sun is reporting that Orioles' outfielder Adam Jones had fluid drained from his knees twice in the past week. Jones said that he will still play in the All-Star game on Tuesday night.

Our View: Jones could really use the break to rest up, but it shouldn't take too much of a toll on him playing a few innings Tuesday night. Fantasy owners should be a bit concerned with the fact that he is banged up, but as long as he is in the lineup you should keep him in as well.

The two RBIs were the first time he recorded multi-RBIs in 17 games, a drought which shouldn't be replicated again considering his prodigious talent.

A. Jones went 1-for-3 with a walk and two runs scored in Friday's win over the Angels.

Analysis: After a blazing hot May (.333/.369/.500) Jones faltered in June (.229/.286/.323), but it's easy to forget that the Orioles phenom is still just 23-years-old and in just his second full season in the bigs.
