Former Toronto Blue Jays top prospect Jordan Groshans has agreed to a deal with the Atlanta Braves, according to a report from HEAVY. The infielder, who made his major league debut with the Miami Marlins on September 13, 2022, at loanDepot park, joins Atlanta after being designated for assignment by Miami earlier this offseason.
Groshans, originally selected 12th overall by Toronto in the 2018 MLB Draft, was traded to the Marlins in 2022 as part of the package that sent Whit Merrifield to the Blue Jays. He appeared in 33 games for Miami across the 2022 and 2023 seasons, batting .262 with two home runs and 10 RBIs.
The 25-year-old provides Atlanta with versatile infield depth, capable of playing third base, first base, and second base. The Braves have been active in adding organizational depth this winter as they prepare for another postseason push in the National League East.
