Gavin Jones: RHP/OF, (2022) North Royalton, OH. 6-foot-3, 205-pound. Advanced on the mound, using a loose arm action he showed quick arm speed from a high ¾ arm angle. Slow-tempo type pitcher who uses easy effort. Showed an athletic balance point. Curveball (78-81 mph), changeup (77-81 mph).Threw his fastball 89-91 mph. One of the biggest stock risers of the winter.
2/09/20
2/9/20 Pitching Delivery Notes: Jones shows a smooth tempo to his delivery and throws from a ¾ arm slot. Overall a short, efficient arm action. Fastball: The fastball was 83-84 mph and showed some sink and fade to the arm side. Curveball: His breaking ball was 67-70 mph with a curveball spin. Good pitch with depth and bite. Changeup: The changeup was 76-77 mph. Pitchability: Jones showed good command of his fastball and an ability to throw his breaking ball in the zone.
2/02/20
2/2/20 Pitching Delivery Notes: Tall athletic projectable build with tight arm action that does a great job driving his lower half towards the plate. Fastball: Plus accuracy coming in with above average spin at 82-84mph. Fastball Spin Rate: 1948-2213 Curveball: 11/5 axis that shows some depth and sharp bite keep hitters off guard sitting around 69-72mph. Curveball Spin Rate: 2002-2200 Changeup: Looks like a fastball coming out of the arm with a late bite at 77mph

Body Type: 6-foot-1, 160-pound very projectable frame. Looks the part. Mechanical/Delivery Notes: Tight arm action with an explosive lower half. All around smooth delivery. Fastball: 80-83mph. Electric fastball with a near 100% efficiency on the Rapsodo. Ability to locate on both sides of the plate. Curveball: 62-64mph with 11/5 movement. Ability to locate in the zone. Changeup: 74mph. Almost enough to keep hitters off balance. Pitchability: High pitch ability with three pitches in the zone on both sides of the plate.
2/03/19
Body Type: 6-foot-1, 160-pound athletic kid with a high-waist and long limbs. Looks the part. Mechanical/Delivery Notes: Good athlete out there with an easy delivery. Arm works well through a high-¾ slot. Generates impressive arm speed without a ton of effort. Fastball: 78-81 mph. Comes out easy and well. Much more to come. Curveball: 61-63 mph. 11/5, big breaker. Decent pitch for class that should sharpen up with maturity. Changeup: 71-72 mph. The more developed of the two secondary offerings. Good sell on it with some depth. Pitchability: Look of a three pitch guy down the road. Fastball is his best pitch presently. Additional Comments: High follow with bright future. Ideal pitcher’s frame with an easy delivery. All signs point to a high velo guy down the road. Ton of upside here.
