4/23/25

Uncommitted. Listed at 5-foot-8, 147-pounds, athletic build. Recently brought up to the varsity team, getting the start at shortstop and batted eighth in the order. The switch-hitting infielder sets up in a simple and balanced stance on both sides of the plate, chokes up on the bat and widens his stance with two strikes to create easier contact. Batted from the left side of the plate during his final at-bat to pick up his lone hit being a double down the left field line. From the infield, has smooth actions, range to either side of the field with an easy, quick arm action across the diamond. Jones will be a name to know as he continues to develop.
