Chipper Jones will begin the final season of his career on the disabled list because of an injury he suffered just before announcing he will retire at the end of the year. However, Jones hopes to return in time for what will be his final home opener at Turner Field on April 13. "Historically Chipper has taken 16-18 days to get back from these injuries," Braves general manager Frank Wren said. "So the thought is that he could very well be ready for the home opener. That's kind of a best-case scenario. But it should be on or around the home opener."
