This young beast has without a doubt some of the better swing mechanics in the state for his class. It’s not often you see a player this age that checks all the boxes of a pro swing like Jones does. The hips are the engine of the swing and move out of the hole at an easy pace, promoting one of the smoother forward moves I’ve seen in a middle schooler from this state. His quiet actions and light on the feet stride allow his head to stay extremely still well before developing his physical strength. He creates a lofty path with advanced upper body mechanics in stride - His chest rotates on an optimal diagonal plane and the shoulders gradually tilt south in hip shoulder separation, loading the hands for him and creating stretch. During the load he angles the wrists forward, creating extra torque in the swing that promotes a knob led path. This creates serious uphill force to match plane with as the shoulders tilt north post landing. Everything jumps off the barrel with backspin. He’s raw as a defender but has plenty enough athleticism to be serviceable in the future. This bat is going to get attention.
