After dislocating his knee Sunday in Milwaukee on a swing, Jones will require left knee surgery to repair the issue. The exact timetable for his return hasn't been given, although it seems likely that he'll be good to go for the start of spring training.

Jones dislocated his knee Sunday against Milwaukee, and the Giants aren't optimistic about his availability moving forward. Bochy stated "It's a shame. The kid's getting a chance to play up here and fix his swing, and that happens." Even if Jones is ruled out for the rest of the year, he should have no problem being ready for the beginning of spring training.
