Rest-of-Season Projections
2024 Fantasy Outlook
Jones went from potential closer-of-the-future in Pittsburgh to a good enough strike thrower and craftsman to project as a high-strikeout starter. His 70-grade four-seamer has excellent ride and sits at 96 mph while touching 100 mph. The 6-foot-1 righty also throws a plus 89-mph slider that touches 94 mph and adequate third and fourth pitches in his curveball and changeup. His 8.9 percent walk rate at Double-A was excellent given his age (21) and electric arsenal. The 9.7 percent walk rate he posted at Triple-A may seem a bit high, but that mark is actually pretty encouraging given his age and the automated balls and strikes system at the top level of the minors. Jones threw 126.1 total innings and could surpass 150 innings in his age-22 season. He is on track to join the big-league rotation sometime this season. Read Past Outlooks
Solid in no decision
Jones didn't factor into the decision Sunday against the Royals, allowing two runs on six hits and three walks across four innings. He struck out five.
ANALYSIS
Jones pitched into the seventh inning in back-to-back starts, but he got pulled after 92 pitches and four innings Sunday. While Jones didn't qualify for the win, it was another decent start for the 22-year-old rookie. He's allowed three or fewer runs in his last three starts, logging a 3.63 ERA and an 18:4 K:BB across 17.1 innings. Jones is tentatively scheduled to face the Reds at Great American Ballpark next weekend.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Debut possible in 2024
Jones could make his MLB debut for Pittsburgh in 2024, per Justice delos Santos of MLB.com.
ANALYSIS
The 22-year-old is one of Pittsburgh's top prospects and moved up to Triple-A Indianapolis in July, so a possible debut next year wouldn't be surprising. Jones posted a 2.23 ERA in 10 starts at Double-A before jumping to Triple-A, though he struggled after the promotion with a 4.72 ERA in 82 frames. However, the right-hander's 10.9 K/9 at the highest level of the minors is encouraging, and a strong start to 2024 could have him up in the majors before long.
