I think it's a little presumptuous to just slot Jones into the lineup next season.

He's got a lot of work to do at the plate, especially without having as much protection as he had with the lineup he was in this past season.


ETA: Downvoters clearly aren't paying attention to what's going on with Jones in the Cape right now.

Jones will be in the line up next year. He’s getting the Ty Floyd 2022 off-season treatment right now from this board. Sad.

Jones won't be in the line up until he learns to hit the off speed. If you can't understand that, sorry you don't know ball.

He'll definitely start out the season in it, but if he still struggles with the breaking ball, he'll be out of it by SEC play.

Yeah Jones looked foolish when it got to SEC play. But wow if he can improve. Plenty power.

He slashed .304/.426/.640 as a true freshman with 14 HR and 45 RBI in 55 games in the toughest conference in the country. He is 100% hitting in the middle of the order on opening day.

It's been 8 at bats.

He’s a freshman man. The way he was hitting early in the season was insane for a freshman.

The jump from HS to SEC/Cape Level pitching is huge.

He will mash when the light comes on.

I mean he was 5th on the team in hitting in conference, out hitting Dugas, Beloso, Thompson, Pearson, Neal and Milazzo. All of those guys, minus neal, were veteran players.

He slashed .259/.375/.459 in conference.

I think it has more to do with picking up where he left off this season, than just the 8 ABs.

He’s got a lot of work to do and if he can put it together halfway, he will still be a great power threat.

You’re not paying attention to shite. You read a thread on Tigerdroppings and MAYBE googled it afterwards.

Very well could have hit the freshman wall too. He will be fine.

Y’all really don’t think our coaches will work with Jones on hitting off speed? Dude doesn’t just luck into the season he had last year in the first half. He will be just fine come spring some of y’all don’t know a lick of baseball and it shows

7 AB’s with zero amount of work on his swing.
What did you expect him to do in a week?


Jones will develop. Dude can rake and he’s huge. Oh, and it’s July.
