A 6-foot-3, 205-pound righthander, Jones pitched in the 89-91 mph range last summer and touched 93, but this spring that velocity has been increased. He has touched 95 mph and has a big arm, though he does have a short stride down the mound and needs to improve a fringy breaking ball in the upper 70s. A head whack and some effort in his delivery makes some scouts think he will fit best as a reliever at the next level, but his arm strength and still-projectable frame should be appealing to teams as well. Jones is an Alabama commit.
