By Greg Williams
Pennsylvania Director of Scouting

After drilling down into our google analytics we have compiled a list of the ten most visited Pennsylvania profiles on the Prep Baseball Report website in 2015.  During the month of December we will count down to the end of the year with a look at those profiles that were most viewed.

No. 2 Nolan Jones 

Nolan JonesPBR Notes: Jones, a Virginia recruit, has established himself has a top prospect over the past few months. He immediately jumps out with his frame, standing at a physical and projectable 6-foot-3, 190 pounds. He moves well laterally and runs a 6.94-second 60, but may move off shortstop as he fills out. That would put more pressure on his bat, but he’s shown that shouldn’t been a problem. Hordes of scouts were bearing down on his at-bats in Jupiter—from area guys to scouting directors—and he didn’t disappoint. He went 5-for-15 with a home run, showing an easy swing, balance and strength at contact from the left side. Over the summer, he hit .333 (25-for-75) with in games that were tracked by Trackman Baseball.

Jones is currently ranked No. 1 in PA and No. 6 in the PBR combined Class of 2016 rankings and made his verbal commitment to Virginia prior to his sophomore season.
