Don't Look Now, But Brian Cashman Is Trying To Move Your Favorite Prospect!

Sunday, February 1, 2026 12:03

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

There has been a big movement to promote Spencer Jones over the past year. I’ve had several readers tell me it is time to see what the kid is made of and bring him to the big league stage. Yankee fans may finally get their wish….or will they?

It’s funny because BRIAN CASHMAN CAN’T WALK & CHEW GUM AT THE SAME TIME this winter, but now that there is a crowded outfield with Cody Bellinger officially back in pinstripes he may have figured out how to put one foot in front of the other while chomping on some Big League Chew. It took him long enough, and if it finally happens….it’s about damn time!

Cashman laid the groundwork for a big tease, check it out HERE. The Yankees have been reluctant to move Jones, and now all of the sudden Cashman thinks he is going to use some Jedi mind trick to drum up some major interest. Teams were interested, especially in 2024. Now? Not as much but Cashman thinks he can rekindle that.

“He’s an exciting young talent that’s, again, unproven at the Major League level,” Cashman said of Jones. “We’re going to find out at some point — or somebody else would find out at some point, if they pry him away from me.”

IF THEY pry him away from me….that’s cute. That would’ve worked better two years ago, but this is an example of the classic Yankees. They hype up prospects, don’t actually promote them or trade them when they are at their highest value and just collect them like an old, dusty antique relic in your grandfather’s closet. Jones could be the same dusty relic (even though several of you have told me I am wrong). Fact is, Jones will soon be 25 years old, still in Triple-A because he has a horrendous strikeout rate. His trade value is diminished.

It’s a sad but true fact. What the Yankees could’ve commanded for him two years ago is NOT what they can get for him now. Will some team out there still pay something for him in a trade deal? Sure. He’s supposed to be a five tool guy and teams are always looking for those. He could just be a late bloomer….but teams know he’s not everything Cashman is trying to sell him as, otherwise the Yankees could’ve just walked away from Cody without blinking an eye.

But they didn’t. The Yankees spent $162.5 million on Cody instead. So now that the Yankees have other needs (especially pitching), they can afford to move some surplus. Cashman could decide to have an estate sale and try to make Jones a big ticket item instead of a hand-me-down at a neighborhood garage sale. Cashman is gonna try…..but I think he is two years too late and his sales pitch isn’t as impressive now.

Cashman is trying. If you believe Jones is the next Yankee great, this is your proof that the Yankees disagree. Don’t be surprised if the Yankees do find a trade partner….and don’t be surprised if the return isn’t as big as you would like. Blame the Yankees!
