Biographical Information

Designated hitter and catcher Jordan Abruzzo was drafted twice, initially by the Boston Red Sox in the 39th round of the 2006 amateur draft, then by the New York Mets in the 13th round of the 2007 amateur draft, one pick after infielder Elliot Soto. He was signed by scout Fred Mazuca. He played in their system from 2007 to 2010, hitting .266/.309/.414 in 212 games in the low minors.
