Jordan Groshans

Jordan Groshans is an American professional baseball infielder in the Atlanta Braves organization who has played in Major League Baseball for the Miami Marlins. Born on November 10, 1999, he attended Magnolia High School in Magnolia, Texas, played in the 2017 Under Armour All-America Game at Wrigley Field and had committed to the University of Kansas when the Toronto Blue Jays took him twelfth overall in the 2018 draft with a signing bonus of 3.4 million dollars. Foot and back injuries and the cancelled 2020 minor league season slowed his climb. Toronto traded him to the Marlins in August 2022, and he reached the majors that September, collecting his first three hits in his second game and hitting his first home run off Noah Syndergaard. He has since moved through the Yankees, Athletics, Royals and Braves organizations on minor league contracts. His older brother Jaxx also played college baseball at Kansas and professionally.
