LHP Dylan Jones (Lemont, 2028) is a long-levered 2028 lefty that shined during the event. The pitcher uses all of his lean 6-foot-2, 159-pound frame with room to add strength. Loose, long, quick arm action from a ¾ slot. Jones’ fastball sat 80-84 mph with an average induced vertical break of 12.7 inches (15.1 inches max). He showcased a slider that sat 70-74 mph with an average spin rate of 2201 RPM (2279 RPM max) while showing depth with an average horizontal movement of 5.9 inches (8.2 inches max). His changeup came in at 76-78 mph with quality sink, average horizontal movement -12.1 inches (-13.8 inches max). A 2028 arm to keep an eye on in the coming years.

Jones showed a 6-foot, 140-pound frame on Sunday, with it being clear that there is plenty of room for strength gains. The left-handed pitcher worked with a 75-77 mph fastball and mid-60s breaker with sharp action, and an over-the-top release point. Jones worked from an athletic position on the mound, incorporating his legs to a fair degree, and getting down the mound well. The lefty also sported one of the better pickoff moves of the tournament, getting multiple runners leaning throughout the outing.
