Jordan Groshans Stats

The Miami Marlins optioned shortstop prospect Jordan Groshans to Triple-A. Miami acquired him at the deadline from the Toronto Blue Jays in exchange for relievers Zach Pop and Anthony Bass. A former top prospect in the Blue Jays system, Groshans finds himself dealing with another setback. Injuries and the pandemic have stunted the development of the 2018 first-round pick. The 23-year-old debuted for the Marlins late last season, slashing .262/.308/.311 in 17 games. He didn't move the needle in spring training, holding a .675 OPS in 17 at-bats. With the Marlins having a surplus of infield depth, the path to fantasy relevance for Groshans is narrow.

The Miami Marlins will select infielder Jordan Groshans' contract from Triple-A Jacksonville ahead of the team's game on Tuesday against the Philadelphia Phillies, according to sources. Groshans, the team's No. 12 prospect per MLB Pipeline, was hitting .301/.399/.416 with an .814 OPS, two home runs, 10 RBI, 14 runs scored and a stolen base in 31 games for Jacksonville to earn the call-up. The 22-year-old was acquired from the Toronto Blue Jays at the trade deadline early last month. The former first-rounder is worth picking up down the stretch in deep mixed and NL-only leagues, as he should see enough playing time the rest of the way to contribute in those formats. Groshans has recently become more of a hit over power guy, and he hit just three long balls in 103 combined game with Jacksonville, Triple-A Buffalo and Single-A Dunedin.

The Miami Marlins are acquiring infield prospect Jordan Groshans from the Toronto Blue Jays on Tuesday in exchange for right-handed relievers Anthony Bass and Zach Pop and an unnamed smaller piece. Groshans is a top-100 prospect and was ranked as the Blue Jays' No. 4 prospect, per MLB Pipeline, before the trade. The 22-year-old is currently a shortstop, but he could make the move to the hot corner eventually. In 67 games for Triple-A Buffalo this year, he hit .250/.348/.296 with one home run, 24 RBI, 30 runs scored and two stolen bases in 279 plate appearances. Groshans was once believed to have plus potential power, but that hasn't been the case in recent seasons, as he's gone deep just eight times in the last two seasons.
