Andruw Jones' Son Among Top Prospects in Class of 2022
By Parker White
Atlanta Braves great Andruw Jones is one of the best center fielders to ever play the game, and there's no disputing that.
Well, it looks as if we have yet to see the last of the Jones bloodline in baseball, as Jones' son Druw is one of the top high school players in the Class of 2022.

To the surprise of no one, Druw is an outfielder like his dad. He possesses natural instincts, both in the field and at the plate, and when projecting him out, he could be just as gifted a ballplayer as his father was.
The 15-year-old Jones has already committed to play college ball at Vanderbilt, arguably the top college baseball program in the country. Of course, that could change if he ends up projecting as a first-round pick coming out of high school.
One of the top-ranked prospects in the Class of 2022 is Druw Jones.
