Spencer Jones is now just one step away from the majors.

The Yankees’ top prospect is being promoted to Triple-A after hitting 16 homers and posting a .984 OPS with Double-A Somerset, according to reports.

The 2022 first-round pick is the team’s No. 2 prospect, per MLB.com.

While there have been questions about his contact ability, he slashed .274/.389/.594 in 49 games this season. He struck out 70 times in 208 plate appearances.

The towering 6-foot-7 slugger mashed a walk-off homer for Somerset on Thursday night to follow up winning Eastern League Player of the Week honors last week for his outrageous stat lines of 10-for-21 (.476/.607/.952) with 8 RBI, 6 R, 4 XBH (1 2B, 3 HR), 7 BB and a 1.559 OPS over six games.

This promotion now makes him eligible for a potential call-up should the Yankees need to make a move, although they already have have four outfielders for just three starting spots in Aaron Judge, Trent Grisham, Cody Bellinger and Jasson Dominguez.
