Hudson Valley Renegades outfielder Spencer Jones during media day on April 5, 2023. Renegades Media Day
When the Yankees selected Spencer Jones out of Vanderbilt in the 1st Round of the 2022 MLB draft, it was pretty apparent who he reminded fans and scouts of. At 6’6 with monstrous raw power and an extremely high ceiling, it’s easy to see how fans compared the left-handed outfielder to Aaron Judge.
Just like Judge, Jones was drafted out of college at the age of 21, with both players hitting 12 HRs and posting an OPS within 0.
