‘I didn’t think it was going to be that fast’: Red Sox prospect Blaze Jordan is off to an impressive start in Greenville

As Blaze Jordan continues his journey through the Red Sox organization, he dreams of one day cranking home runs over the Green Monster.

But for now, he’s with the Greenville Drive, launching long balls over the “mini-monster” replica of Boston’s famed left-field wall at Fluor Field.

The fans already love him, less than a month after he was promoted from Salem, Drive manager Iggy Suarez said.

Jordan has 11 home runs this season, including two in his Greenville debut. He’s making plenty of contact too, with a .348 batting average during his time in High-A.
