The Yankees optioned OF Spencer Jones to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.
Fantasy Impact
Jones slashed 333/.455/.889 with three homers, seven RBI and three stolen bases in 22 plate appearances in spring training action. He'll have a chance to be called up to the majors at some point this season.
New York Yankees general manager and senior vice president Brian Cashman said Spencer Jones could compete for a starting role elsewhere but is "currently blocked with us."
Fantasy Impact
Jones has yet to see big league action despite posting a .271/.349/.490 slash line over his minor league career. He had a strong 2025 season, hitting .274/.362/.571 with 35 home runs in 116 games. The Yankees have Giancarlo Stanton as their designated hitter and Aaron Judge, Cody Bellinger and Trent Grisham in the outfield. Cashman also noted that Jason Dominguez, who has struggled to find consistent playing time himself, is ahead of Jones on the Yankees’ depth chart. While Cashman believes Jones could compete for an everyday role elsewhere during camp, he is “currently blocked.” As a result, Jones will likely begin the season in the minors.
The Yankees say Spencer Jones is not coming up immediately for Aaron Judge.
Fantasy Impact
Martino added that with the recent play of Jones, he has moved him back toward untouchable status. Nonetheless, he still won't be called up immediately.
Spencer Jones is not in the Yankees Triple-A lineup due to back spasms.
Fantasy Impact
Jones is dealing with an injury. His absence is not due to a potential trade.
The Yankees promoted Spencer Jones to Triple-A.
Fantasy Impact
Jones slashed .274/.389/.594 with 16 home runs over 49 games in Double-A. He'll look to keep it going in Triple-A.
