Scouting Report

Underclass Games 6/20/18

Jones is 5-11 with a lankier athletic frame that still has plenty of projection to it. He hits from the right side from an open balanced stance, short leg kick stride on line, load back with a bit of a wrap, explosive hips get full rotation, some balance to swing. Keeps hands inside, shorter path to the ball, slightly uphill with some extension through ball, worked gap to gap in round, swing sets up well to shoot gaps, exit velocity was 84. In the outfield, good feet, rounds ball to play through it to target, fields with above average hands and works through to quick clean exchange. Throws from a high three-quarters arm slot, outfield velocity was 82. On the mound, throws from a three-quarters arm slot with a shorter arm action that has some quickness to it, normal effort to his delivery. Body works on line during delivery and he finishes square. Fastball was 76-79, touching 80, with some downward angle and a bit of late run. Curveball has gradual 11/5 break at 67-69 and some armspeed. Change-up was 71-72 with some fade and armspeed.
