Jones, a consensus top-5 prospect in the Yankees’ system, smashed an opposite-field home run Saturday. The two-run blast marked the second straight year Jones began spring training with a homer.
The first name that jumps out is Yankees’ number two prospect Spencer Jones. Jones could hypothetically take left field from Jasson Dominguez who has struggled at the position placing the Martian in the DH slot. But this is unlikely for a number of reasons.
After a rough 2024 season, New York Yankees prospect Spencer Jones is looking to turn the page. And in his first Grapefruit League game of 2025, he made a statement. Jones crushed a two-run home run against the Toronto Blue Jays, showcasing the raw power that once made him one of the Yankees’ most exciting young talents.

Changing one ball to a strike can completely alter an inning. Saturday was proof of that. The New York Yankees used the Automated Ball-Strike System to turn a strikeout into a walk, then went on to score three runs in the top of the sixth against Toronto.
Giancarlo Stanton is out with injured elbows and his return date is uncertain. However, the Yankees might have found the right candidate.
The Yankees got a potential view of the future Saturday afternoon when an overturned call from the experimental Automated Ball-Strike (ABS) challenge system sparked a big inning against the Blue Jays at TD Ballpark.
