Jones isn't going anywhere. Now the question is whether the Yankees believe his lefty bat can help them in the Bronx in the second half.

The New York Yankees were unwilling to move on from top prospect Spencer Jones at the trade deadline. General manager Brian Cashman has an explanation.

The Yankees are only willing to trade their mashing prospect for Pirates ace — and arguably the industry’s most desirable pitching trade asset — Paul Skenes, and would not include Jones in trade talks with the Marlins for former NL Cy Young winner Sandy Alcantara, according to The Post’s Jon Heyman.
