[edit] Call to the Majors

On April 29th, 2008 Jonathan was called into the major league to play second base for the Colorado Rockies in response to an injury sustained by their star shortstop Troy Tulowitzki as well as other lineup diffuculties plaguing the ballclub in the early 2008 baseball season. On May 04, he got his first RBI in a start against the Los Angeles Dodgers at Coors Field.
