After being drafted at just 18 years old by the Minnesota Twins in the 2008 MLB Draft, Adam decided to not sign and instead attend Washington State University and pitch for their baseball team. He decided to try again in the 2011 MLB Draft, in which the Miami Marlins drafted him in the second round. Adam spent the four years after being drafted playing for minor league teams, eventually making his MLB debut on June 10, 2015. As of August 2016, Adam held a 12-7 MLB record with a 3.88 ERA. Adam was placed on the 15-day disabled list on Aug. 14, 2015 after suffering tendonitis in his finger. He was set to make his return on Sept. 25, 2016, which sadly was the same day that his teammate Jose Fernandez passed away in a tragic boating accident.
