Former Toronto Blue Jays top prospect Jordan Groshans has agreed to a deal with the Atlanta Braves, according to a report from Heavy.com on Monday. Groshans, who made his major league debut with the Miami Marlins on September 13, 2022, against the Philadelphia Phillies at loanDepot park, joins the Braves organization after being traded from Toronto to Miami in 2022.
The 24-year-old infielder was originally selected by the Blue Jays with the 12th overall pick in the 2018 MLB Draft. After progressing through Toronto's farm system, he was dealt to the Marlins as part of a package for pitcher Zach Pop and Anthony Bass. Groshans appeared in 23 games for Miami during the 2022 season, batting .262 with one home run and six RBIs.
Atlanta's signing adds organizational depth at the corner infield positions. The Braves have not officially announced the terms of the agreement.
