All Eyes On Spencer Jones!

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


I don’t dabble on X much these days, but for some reason I decided to go on and just see what the latest buzz was, exactly. I really should’ve known better. It just frustrated me more than I already was which is saying a lot.

We all know Aaron Judge is on the shelf, and hopefully back in the lineup sooner rather than later. Losing Judge means the sky is falling basically….because it is. Judge is the only heartbeat on this team. So now what do we do? The trade deadline is Thursday. The Yankees could make another move, but if this is “only” going to be closer to a 10-day miss, a trade won’t be for a Judge fill in.

The easy answer for most people has been Spencer Jones, but here is why I got frustrated by my X feed. So many “experts” weighing in with different takes. Everyone wants to know what is going to happen with Jones. Some will defend him and demand he stay. Any trade talk means they will chase you with a pitchfork and hunt you down. Then you have some people who are open to it IF the price is right. I’m in this camp.

Then you have “experts” posting all kinds of takes. Like Bob Nightengale, after scrolling all the way down on THIS article, you find the Yankees are “open” to trading Jones according to rival GM’s. Gee, that is mind boggling. Player gets traded sometimes. Wow. The Yankees aren’t against the idea of trading someone if the price is right. Such a huge breaking news headline, yet X was all in a tizzy.

Then there’s Jon Heyman who goes from Jones not getting called up to, also not getting traded.

Then last but not least THIS feeding more flames into the “Will Jones or won’t Jones” get called up?
I’m honestly just tired of seeing all of these headlines. I get it, but the Yankees are in a big enough jam as it is between Judge and massively underperforming, I just don’t want to read more. No, I don’t think Jones is going to get called up nor do I think he SHOULD. Yes, he is on a tear down in Triple-A and just had a three-homerun game…. blah blah blah but the kid just got there and has concerns. He has an UGLY strike-out rate and he needs to work on that before he can get called up to the show. He has potential, but he’s not ready. He has a lot to do before he can convince me he is ready for the big leagues. We have a roster full of guys that strikeout like he does and can’t put the ball in play and score runs OR practice fundamentals. 

If Jones WAS to get called up, the Yankees have a log jam as it is and he’s not going to be playing every day. He needs to play every day. He doesn’t need to be called up to sit on the bench and be cold. He’s not ready. You don’t get promoted in these circumstances, it’s not good for him or the Yankees.
So if Jones stays so be it, let him play every day in the minors and continue to progress. Honestly though, if the Yankees can get a solid pitcher for him I won’t be mad at it either. Can we just stop with the Jones is gonna get called up to replace Judge party? It’s not time yet, and not in this chaos, please.
I need a break from X….
