Nolan Jones went 0-for-3 with a strikeout on Monday, dropping his spring average to .125.

Both of Jones’s balls in play were hit hard, but they went for outs anyway, which is the story of his spring so far; he’s 4-for-32 even though 12 of his 18 balls in play have been hard hit. Of course, it’s not helping that he’s also struck out 14 times. Jones seems unlikely to make the Guardians, even though he’s out of options. A rebuilding team might gamble on him, but it seems more likely that he’d clear waivers and report to Triple-A.
