Spencer Jones is already hard to miss.
But that's even more true when the 6-foot-7 New York Yankees prospect is hitting like this.
The lefty swinger is on an absolute tear at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, the kind that would make Aaron Judge proud.
A home run Sunday gives Jones nine homers in 16 games at Triple-A.
Jones crushed it, too. It was 109.6 miles per hour off the bat and traveled 445 feet.

It's too simple to compare Jones to Judge, of course. Just because they're both 6-foot-7 doesn't mean they're the same.
But Jones clearly has prodigious power, and he seems to slowly be getting his strikeout woes a bit under control.
If the former first-round pick out of Vanderbilt keeps hitting like this, he'll eventually force the Yankees' hand. And who doesn't want to see Jones and Judge roaming the same outfield and hitting alongside one another in the order?
