Spencer Jones - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Idle against southpaw Jones is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the White Sox.

Impact The Yankees will go with a right-handed-heavy lineup to counter White Sox southpaw Anthony Kay, so Jones will retreat to the bench along with fellow left-handed hitters Ryan McMahon and J.C. Escarra. Amed Rosario will step in for McMahon at third base and will bat third. After covering left field Tuesday in the series opener, Cody Bellinger will slide over to center in place of Jones on Wednesday.

Rips second homer Jones went 1-for-3 with a solo home run, two walks, two RBI and two runs scored in Tuesday's 12-2 win over the White Sox.

Impact Jones got the Yankees on the board in the second inning, taking Davis Martin deep for a solo shot that marked his second homer of the rookie campaign. In his next trip to the plate, the outfielder drew a bases-loaded walk to force in another run. Since being recalled on June 5, Jones has looked comfortable at the big-league level, going 7-for-22 (.318) with three extra-base hits and four walks. With how he has performed, the 25-year-old should continue to see starting lineups against right-handers.

Sitting against southpaw Jones is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Guardians.

Impact Jones hit just .167 while striking out at a 44.4 percent clip during a 10-game stint in the majors back in May, but he's gotten off to a nice start since receiving another call-up to New York last week after Aaron Judge's (rib) placement on the injured list. In his four games (three starts) upon rejoining the Yankees, Jones has gone 6-for-12 with two extra-base hits (one home run, one double) and an 0:4 BB:K. The Yankees will hold the left-handed-hitting Jones out of the lineup Wednesday while southpaw Parker Messick takes the hill for Cleveland, but the 25-year-old rookie should be in line for an extended run as a starter versus right-handed pitching so long as he can hit for power and get on base at a steady rate.

Launches first career home run Jones went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer in Tuesday's 3-2 win against Cleveland.

Impact Jones launched a 443-foot two-run shot off Slade Cecconi in the second inning that opened the scoring. It was his first career MLB homer, and it looked like anything but a young player finding his footing. After he hit .167 in ten games before he was sent back down, he's now hitting .500 across four games since being recalled. The strikeout rate has been a well-documented concern -- he posted a 32.4% strikeout rate at Triple-A this season -- so the plate discipline bears watching, but with how banged up New York's outfield is at the moment, Jones should see playing time for the foreseeable future.

Logs three hits in Judge's absence Jones went 3-for-3 with an RBI double during Friday's 5-3 loss to Boston.

Impact Jones was recalled ahead of Friday's game and started in right field due to the absence of Aaron Judge (ribs). Jones reached base safely in all three of his plate appearances, with his double in the fourth inning bringing Jazz Chisholm home. With Judge sidelined, Jones should see regular playing time in the outfield against right-handers until either Giancarlo Stanton (calf) or Jasson Dominguez (shoudler) are back from the injured list.

Officially recalled Friday The Yankees recalled Jones from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Friday.

Impact Jones takes the 26-man roster spot vacated by Aaron Judge (ribs) after he was placed on the 10-day IL in a corresponding move. Jones got his first taste of the big leagues last month but slashed .167/.259/.167 with zero extra-base hits, two RBI, one stolen base and a 3:12 BB:K across 27 trips to the plate before being sent back down. He'll need to cut down on that 44.4 percent strikeout rate in a big way, but Jones should see regular at-bats against right-handed pitching at least until Jasson Dominguez (shoulder) and Giancarlo Stanton (calf) are back from the injured list.
