Baseball America ranked Blaze Jordan the Red Sox’ No. 7 prospect entering 2022, No. 14 entering 2023 and No. 21 entering 2024.

But the power-hitting first baseman dropped off Baseball America’s Top 30 Red Sox prospect list entering 2025 after a down year in 2024. He had a .693 OPS in 89 games for Double-A Portland.

But Jordan is still just 22 and he’s regaining prospect status this year. The right-handed hitter won Eastern League Player of the Week for May 19-25. He went 10-for-23 (.435 batting average) with two home runs, one double, four runs, eight RBIs and two stolen bases for Portland.

He’s on his way to winning Player of the Month. He’s had a dominant May, going 25-for-66 (.379) with a .481 on-base percentage, .652 slugging percentage, 1.133 OPS, five home runs, three doubles, 17 RBIs, 13 runs, 11 walks, nine strikeouts and three steals in 21 games.

After a tough April (.235/.321/.324/.645), his season slash line is up to .306/.401/.485/.886 with five homers, nine doubles, 30 RBIs, 25 runs, 19 walks and 17 strikeouts in 39 games (157 plate appearances).

Boston drafted Jordan in the third round (89th overall) in 2020. He received a $1.75 million signing bonus.

Jordan has been vocal about mental health. He posted a lengthy message Oct. 1, 2023, on X. He wrote that his anxiety and depression hit “a breaking point” at the end of the 2021 season. He was hospitalized for four or five days and missed the final two weeks of his first professional season.

“I told him how proud we are,” manager Alex Cora said in February 2024. “Same situation as Jarren (Duran) last year. He was open about everything he was feeling. We want more of that. It makes the person better. It makes the organization better. It makes the world better.”
