Brock Jones

Jones is a productive power-hitting outfielder from Stanford who struck out too much in college and in his pro debut. He hit .324/.451/.664 with 21 home runs and 16 steals in 65 games while finishing his junior year strong. Jones was similarly productive against complex and Single-A pitching while striking out 27 times in 19 games. His left-handed power is plus to all fields, and he is also a plus runner, although that may not be the case in his mid-20s. A two-sport athlete who played safety at Stanford as a freshman before dropping football to focus on baseball, Jones is a strapping 6-foot, 197 pounds. He should be able to stick in center field, which will be important as he has a fringe-average arm. His power and physicality are alluring, but it would be an accomplishment if he developed a fringe-average hit tool.
