7/27/16 - Max FB: 79, FB: 77-79, CB: 61-64, CH: 69-70, 6-foot-5, 185-pound, LHP showed a long motion to go along with his long and lanky frame, takes his time and stays smooth to deliver pitches through a low ¾ arm slot, Jones uses a little bit of a hop at the top of his leg lift to add a little extra momentum toward the plate, strides slightly closed and falls just a little bit toward 3B on his follow through, long and loose arm action with minimal effort suggests there is plenty more in the tank for Jones. Fastball showed some slight run and was thrown consistently for strikes, slider was a sweeper with 2/8 shape across the zone and can be thrown in any count, changeup was straight and a simple change of speed, struck out 3 hitters in his two innings of work.
