Chipp Jones said late in his career-worst 2009 season that if he struggled to a similar degree in 2010, he would retire. This despite a three-year, $42 million contract extension signed one year ago, which starts this season and runs through 2012. Bobby Cox was asked what he had thought about Jones? comments late last season, which the former National League MVP reiterated recently. ?I never took them to heart at all,? Cox said Thursday. ?He?ll play three more years, and play good.?
