Marc T. Tramuta

He was assigned to the Dodgers’ affiliate in the Northwest League where he played 32 games for the Yakima Bears hitting .242 and fielding the shortstop position at an .846 percentage.

Tramuta returned to St. Bonaventure to finish his degree and to serve as an assistant to his former coach, Sudbrook, from 1994-1995.

Tramuta’s professional career in baseball began when he was hired as a Mid-Atlantic regional scout for the Baltimore Orioles from 1996 to 2003.

His next at-bat was with the Toronto Blue Jays as a North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia regional scout from 2003 to 2007. At the close of the 2007 season, Toronto honored Tramuta with the Al Lamacchia Award for Excellence in Scouting.

The Blue Jays then promoted him to the position of National Cross Checker, one of four scouting supervisors in the organization. He remained with the Toronto front office for six years.

In 2012 the New York Mets offered Tramuta the Assistant Scouting Director position. He was honored by the Mid-Atlantic Scouts Association in 2014 as its cross checker of the year.

Marc continued to turn heads with the Mets organization and was promoted to Director of Amateur Scouting in 2016. He became responsible for eighteen area scouts, five regional cross checkers, one national cross checker and the point man for the first year player draft.

In October 2023, Tramuta, the Mets director of amateur scouting for six years departed New York and headed north to be special assistant, player personnel with the Toronto Blue Jays. Tramuta had moved to a senior advisor role in international and amateur scouting for the Mets before the 2023 season

Despite his work in the rarefied air of Major League Baseball, Tramuta counts his time as an assistant coach for Frank Corsoro with the 1995 Chautauqua County team in the 16-year-old Babe Ruth World Series in Jamestown as one of his top-five baseball highlights. That squad became the first local entry to ever win a BR World Series game, in fact they won two, against national caliber competition.

Although Tramuta’s job involves considerable time on the road, he still is proud to call Fredonia his home.
