Arm Slot
Angle of the forearm relative to the ground between maximum external rotation (MER) and ball release (BR). Which can be a powerful player comparison metric, delivered in degrees.
Knee Extension Velo
The angular velocity of the front knee straightening after foot plant, which provides indicators of velocity potential. Measured in degrees per second.
Deception
The amount of time that the ball is visible to the hitter, after the instant of front foot strike. Measures in milliseconds.
Hip-Shoulder Separation
The difference in angle of between the hips and shoulders, occurring close to the foot plant. Measured in degrees.
Jones showed to be an interesting two-way prospect at the event on Sunday. Standing at a strong 6-foot-1, 200-pounds, Jones showed well on the mound, specifically. Out of a high ¾ slot, he showed a fastball that sat 81-84 mph (84.7 mph max) with life out of the hand. He showed three offspeed pitches; a curveball that showed 11/5 shape with quality spin (2,361 rpm average), a slider that flashed 10/4 sharp action, and a changeup with slight fade to the arm side. Defensively, he showed off his strong arm with accurate throws across the diamond that reached a max velocity of 83 mph. During batting practice, Jones had a flat bat path and used the whole field, and he registered a max exit velocity of 88.3 mph.

At an athletic 6-foot-1, 190-pounds, Jones has plenty of room to add weight to his frame. While on the mound, Cashton works quickly, staying inline well then utilizing a tall and fall type delivery to create fastballs up to 80.2 mph, and sitting 77.5-80.1 mph that flashed sink. When it comes to his offspeed offerings, Jones featured two different breaking balls, the first being a curveball that showed sharp 11/5 action that was consistently throwing all around the zone. His third pitch was a slider that showed more sweeping action than the curveball and was also a viable option to keep hitters off balance as he was able to throw it for strikes as well.
