Chipper Jones plans surgery, to attempt comeback
Baseball Betting Lines
08/13/2010 -
ATLANTA (AP) -Chipper Jones says he is not retiring without trying to come back from season-ending knee surgery.
Jones, speaking Friday for the first time since the team announced he tore his left anterior cruciate ligament and will miss the rest of the season, says he will have surgery on the knee Saturday.
The 38-year-old Jones says now is not the right time to ``make a decision to quit.'' He says he will go through the rehab process before making a final decision on his future.
He said earlier this season he would consider retirement after the season.
The expected recovery time is about six months, giving him a chance to be ready for spring training in 2011.

Kurt Warner to start, Matt Leinart to watch
Despite the debate that's swirling , Kurt Warner will remain the starting quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals, coach Dennis Green said today. The Arizona Cardinals are the +7 point underdog at online sportsbook MySportsbook.com for this Sunday's game.
Green's comment came in a statement released by the team following an ESPN report that Green decided that rookie Matt Leinart would replace Warner as starter for Sunday's game at Atlanta.
"Generally talking about the starting lineup is not something we do," Green told the AP. "However, given the speculation that was out there we want to make it clear. We're disappointed after last week, but we still expect to be a playoff football team and we fully expect Kurt Warner to be the quarterback that leads us. That has not changed."
