Is Spencer Jones a Must-Stash Candidate Ahead of His MLB Debut?
New York Yankees outfield prospect Spencer Jones is set to join the MLB roster ahead of Friday's contest against the Milwaukee Brewers. With Giancarlo Stanton on the injured list and Jasson Dominguez slated to join him on the shelf with a shoulder injury, the team's top outfield prospect is set to make his MLB debut. Throughout his time in the minor leagues, the slugger has showcased high-end power but has often struggled to make consistent contact. This season, across 33 games at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, Jones has launched 11 home runs while holding a .258/.366/.592 line. However, he has struck out a hefty 46 times. Last summer, Jones went deep 35 times while swinging 29 bags over a 116-game stint. While his strikeout tendencies do hinder his upside in points leagues, Jones is a priority stash option in standard leagues given his five-category skill set. He could carve out a starting role in the short term, given the numerous injuries in the Yankees' starting nine.
