Scouting Report
Updated May 20, 2026
Druw Jones, the 22-year-old son of Hall of Famer Andruw Jones, was selected 2nd overall by the Arizona Diamondbacks in the 2022 MLB Draft. However, four years later, he remains at Double-A Amarillo with a .202 batting average and .622 OPS, having not yet reached Triple-A. Analysts are beginning to label him as a potential bust prospect, especially given his high draft position and the expectation that top-five picks should either be in the majors or pushing for a call-up by age 22. The Diamondbacks hope he reaches Triple-A at some point this year, with a possible MLB debut next season if he performs well.
