The knock (and probably has some validity) is that he feasts on fastballs and can't hit the offspeed.



The knock was that he expands his zone from box to box.

He homered off of pitches other than fastballs last year. The issue he had was pitch recognition in general and it bit him in the arse hard against SEC pitching.

This weekend was good to see, but I still stand by what I said earlier in that we won't know anything about Jones' improvements until he gets a couple SEC weekends under his belt.

The walk that he took against VMI in game 1 (despite it being in the middle of a lot of bad pitches to other batters), was more encouraging to me than the HRs.
