Nolan Jones is one of the Indians best position prospects.
Jones was drafted by the Indians in the 2nd round of the 2016.
- Drafted out of Holy Ghost Prep HS, Philadelphia.
He is having another fine season in the Cleveland organization, hitting .273/.409/.438 with 14 HR between high-A and AA ball.
- Fangraphs has him rated the 50th best prospect in baseball.
He is not a perfect prospect. He has a very serious platoon split and struggles against lefties. It’s bad enough that he might very well end up being a platoon bat in the majors unless he sorts it out.
