Yankees prospect Spencer Jones, rated No. 3 by MLB.com, is set to make an impact in Double-A Somerset using a new torpedo bat. This bat has gained attention due to its larger barrel size, which Jones believes can significantly enhance his hitting. After trying it for a week, he feels a positive difference, particularly in avoiding discomfort during swings. Additionally, after adjusting his swing and stance, he is focused on improving contact rates and elevating his hitting performance moving into the season.
They showed me where my barrel was was like 20th percentile of barrel size of bats. It's like, why am I using a bat with a tiny barrel when I could maximize it?
A little bit. There's some balls I feel like I got jammed and it was a lot of barrel. I mean that's a good feeling. The ones where it doesn't hurt the hands as much.
