Groover is #8 in batting average but just a single extra base hit. That's not going to get it done at 3B.

OOOOOF

He remains a good defensive center fielder, especially at the catch point. Jones does some ridiculous stuff adjusting and contorting his body to make spectacular plays, though his range and route quality are more average, and are sometimes why he’s forced to do Spiderman stuff. All is not lost here, but at age 21, there are so many aspects of Jones’ game that need to develop that it’d be unreasonable to expect that all of them will. A hopeful but level-headed projection for him at this point is a career like Michael A. Taylor’s, where Jones gets to enough power and plays great enough defense to have a long career as a fourth outfielder with a season or two peaking above that.

After Marvin Harrison Jr and Dru Jones, might I recommend not drafting sons of Hall of Famers and expecting similar talent?
