Oklahoma State Boosts Roster with New Talent for Upcoming Season
Oklahoma State University is reinforcing its team with fresh talent in preparation for the upcoming season. Recently, transfer player Jayson Jones announced his commitment to join Josh Holliday and the OSU baseball program. Jones, who previously played for Arkansas, brings valuable experience and skills to the Cowboys.
During the 2024 season, Jones showcased his abilities in 23 games for the Razorbacks. With 14 hits and 17 RBIs in 72 at-bats, he proved to be a reliable contributor on the field. Despite facing OSU in a game last season where he went hitless in five at-bats, Jones’ potential caught the attention of the OSU coaching staff.
In his freshman year, Jones recorded nine hits in 46 at-bats, along with six RBIs. Known for his ability to draw walks, Jones accumulated 14 walks in just 20 appearances, highlighting his keen eye for the strike zone. Despite his career batting average of .195, Jones has displayed a promising trajectory for improvement, especially in the power-hitting department.
The Cowboys’ recent performance in the Stillwater Regional showcased their competitiveness, winning their first two games but falling short against Florida. As they aim to advance further in the upcoming season, reinforcements like Jones could provide the necessary boost to propel them into the Super Regionals and beyond.
With a Super Regional appearance eluding OSU since 2019, the addition of players like Jones reflects the team’s commitment to enhancing their roster for the 2025 season. By leveraging the strengths of new recruits and building on past experiences, the Cowboys are poised to make a strong impact in the collegiate baseball scene.
