Spencer Jones is already having fun with his Yankees offseason.

Jones, 25, got engaged to his girlfriend, Ava O’Connor, the couple announced in a joint Instagram submit on Saturday.

The heartfelt carousel of photos featured Jones’ proposal on high of the Empire State Building and the couple celebrating around New York City.

“Forever starts today,” the submit learn. “I really feel like the luckiest man on Earth to suggest to the most stunning, clever, and sweetest lady I’ve ever met. You’ve elevated my life in so many methods & I can’t wait to take your hand in marriage.

“You are the brightest light in a city of endless opportunities. I truly believe the world is ours when I am with you. There is nothing we cannot do when we are together. You are so easy to love. The Joneses coming soon!”

It’s unclear when precisely the couple began relationship, but the earliest photos of the two shared on social media are from mid-2024. O’Connor celebrated the Yankees rookie’s first promotion to the large leagues earlier in May.

“Let’s go baby! The most deserving incredible man. I love you!” O’Connor wrote on her Instagram Story upon the information of Jones’ promotion.

Jones, once a high prospect before his first large league season, had a promising 2026, with the 6-foot-7 outfielder exhibiting glimpses of being an elite participant.

In 86 video games, Jones posted a slash line of .245/.313/.429 with 11 residence runs and 40 RBIs.

One of his main downsides, however, was his excessive strikeout fee, getting punched out 105 occasions in just 289 plate appearances.

“I struck out a million times this year,” Jones instructed The Post following the Yankees’ elimination in the ALDS by the Rays. “I really feel like I didn’t assist the staff in certain contexts that manner. I think defensively, I think I can get higher. I think I can get quicker. 

“And then the mental side of the game — leaning on the resources we have here and making sure that I’m the best competitor when the season starts next year.”
