Larry Wayne Jones is going to be 40 in April, and he's about to begin his 19th season with the Braves. Jones says 2012 won't be his last in baseball, but it will be the final year of his guaranteed contract, for which he's scheduled to be paid $14 million. Jones made the NL All-Star team last year, and his deal does have a club option for 2013. Will the Braves exercise it? From the looks of this photo sent to us by reader Cody, they're getting a lot of ballplayer for the money.

Reminds me of Edgar Renteria's sloppy ass last year.

There's been a lot of fat baseball players over the years.

He looks like my neighbor, who hangs out in his garage (door open, of course), drinks beer, and watches NASCAR all summer.

Sounds like an awesome neighbor.

You live by my brother-in-law?

He's 40. He plays third. And they're playing him for his bat, not his range. As long as he hits like last year, who cares?

And he isn't Kung Fu Panda's size yet ...
