Jones remains on the bench Sunday against Cincinnati.

EDGE Analysis

Jones finds himself on the bench for the fifth time in the last seven games. The Diamondbacks have charged back into Wild Card contention, so that doesn't appear to be a case of avoiding him in favor of younger players in an audition for next season. Abraham Almonte will get the nod in right field.

Jones is not in the lineup Saturday against the Reds.

EDGE Analysis

Jones sits for the fourth time in the last six games. He appears to be falling out of favor despite recording a strong .292/.358/.500 slash line over his last 18 games. Jarrod Dyson will be the right fielder Saturday.

Jones is not in the lineup Wednesday for the third time in four days.

EDGE Analysis

Jones is hitting .285 with a respectable .751 OPS since the All-Star break, but he's found himself on the short end of the stick with manager Torey Lovullo deciding to rotate his starting right fielder since September got underway. Jarrod Dyson will man that position for the Diamondbacks on Wednesday.

Jones is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Dodgers.

EDGE Analysis

Jones will give way to Josh Rojas in right field after starting each of the past four games at the position. While the veteran appeared set to settle into more of a part-time role once Rojas was called up from Triple-A Reno on Aug. 12, Jones has been able to maintain fairly steady playing time thanks to the season-ending shoulder injury to David Peralta.

Jones provided a pinch-hit solo home run in his lone at-bat Monday in the Diamondbacks' 6-4 win over the Giants.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran has provided three of his 15 home runs this season off the bench, and it's looking more likely that the majority of his action over the final few weeks will come as a pinch hitter late in games. Jones has started just twice in the Diamondbacks' last seven contests with Jarrod Dyson and rookie Josh Rojas emerging as manager Torey Lovullo's preferred corner-outfield options.

Jones went 1-for-4 with a triple, two RBI and a run scored in Sunday's 6-1 win over the Giants.

EDGE Analysis

Jones got the start in center field over Jarrod Dyson against the left-handed Madison Bumgarner and extended his hitting streak to five games. A summer hitting funk and the recent callup of Josh Rojas have resulted in Jones' playing time taking a hit, but he'll typically get in the lineup against lefties.

Jones hit a three-run home run in his only at-bat during Friday's 10-9 loss to the Giants.

EDGE Analysis

With two outs and the Diamondbacks trailing 7-4 in the eighth, Jones crushed a three-run home off Sam Coonrod to even the score, 7-7. The 34-year-old ended a 45-game home run drought dating all the way back to June 15. Overall this season, Jones is batting .270/.317/.432 with 14 homers.

Jones will see a decrease in playing time due to the promotion of prospect Josh Rojas, Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Jones had already seen Jarrod Dyson cut into his playing time, the result of a cooling-off period this summer. After a hot start with the Diamondbacks, the veteran outfielder is batting .248 with no home runs and 12 RBI over 43 games since June 18. The 34-year-old Jones understands and accepts his plight. "It's just understanding your role and trying not to be a selfish player," Jones said. "I've seen all facets of this game. The ones that I've seen support their teammates the most seem generally to have the most success, team-wise, and happiness individually."

Jones is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Rockies.

EDGE Analysis

Jones has supplied a lackluster .680 OPS thus far in the second half and could fade into more of a part-time role if the 59-59 Diamondbacks eventually tumble out of the National League wild-card race. He'll cede his spot in the outfield to Jarrod Dyson, who shifts over to clear a spot in center for Ketel Marte.

Jones is not in Saturday's lineup against the Dodgers.

EDGE Analysis

He is hitting .270 with zero home runs in 74 at-bats since the All-Star break. Jarrod Dyson will start in right field and lead off.
