Has Aaron Judge’s mere existence led the Yankees to their next Aaron Judge? The Yankees and Spencer Jones likely hope so.
led the Yankees to their next Aaron Judge? The Yankees and Spencer Jones likely hope so.
But Judge, a 2013 first-round pick from California, grew into a superstar slugger as a mountain of a man. The biggest hole in Jones’ game to this point has been making consistent contact. Jones has struck out in 31.4 percent of his plate appearances this season and said he has been working on eliminating some uppercut from his swing.
“I’ve always been fast. But I’ve never really had the tools as far as stealing bases,” said Jones, who credited Hudson Valley’s coaching and scouting reports. “Just little things,” Jones said of the tips Judge offered. “We were joking around the weight room that once you get to a certain size, it’s about moving right and not so much about strength. So it’s just little things like that.”
