Part 2/10:
Jones's journey through the minor leagues has been marked by significant ups and downs. He exhibited a strong second half of the previous season, showcasing his ability to deliver impressive offensive statistics. Over his last 33 games, Jones posted an impressive OPS nearing 1,000 and a WRC+ of over 160. However, juxtaposed with these achievements were considerable strikeout challenges; he logged a staggering strikeout rate of 36.8%, making him the first Yankee prospect to strike out 200 times in a season—a less than desirable milestone.
