In the 2006 Major League Baseball draft, Drabek was selected in the first round by the Philadelphia Phillies as the 18th overall pick.
After a dominant start to the season with the Class A–Advanced Clearwater Threshers, Drabek was promoted to the Class AA Reading Phillies on June 1, 2009.
He was invited to the 2009 All-Star Futures Game, in which he pitched one inning.
Drabek received the Paul Owens Award from the Phillies in a pregame ceremony at Citizens Bank Park on September 15, 2009.
The annual award is presented to the top pitcher and the top position player in the Phillies' minor-league system.
He was officially announced as a member of the Blue Jays on December 16, 2009.
Drabek threw the second no-hitter in Double-A New Hampshire Fisher Cats history on Independence Day, 2010.
The final score was 5–0 over the New Britain Rock Cats, as he walked two and struck out three.
Drabek was voted the 2010 Eastern League pitcher of the year.
Drabek attributed some of his success to a more consistent delivery, for which the point of release for different pitches appeared the same to batters.
"In the beginning, it was like I had different movements for different pitches. Now, everything comes the same and everything stays the same."
The Blue Jays announced on September 12, 2010, that Drabek would be promoted to make his major league debut on September 15.
At the time, he was considered the Blue Jays top pitching prospect and amongst the top prospects in baseball.
On April 2, Drabek earned his first Major League win against the Minnesota Twins, throwing 101 pitches through 7 innings, with 7 strikeouts, giving up only 1 hit and 1 earned run.
His worst career outing occurred on June 1, 2011, when he lasted only 0.2 innings versus the Cleveland Indians.
He had been ranked as the 12th-best prospect in the draft by Baseball America, but was drafted in a lower position because, at the time of the draft, there were concerns about personal incidents.
Marti Wolever, director of scouting for the Phillies, stated of the issues that the Phillies "feel very good about this selection. We think everything is behind him and we're moving on."
The Phillies opted to develop Drabek as a pitcher in their farm system.
Drabek learned from the experiences of his father.
He also described his father's involvement to be "like having a pitching coach who lives with you ... He taught me so much, not only about the physical part of the game, but the mental part too."
"What kind of things I should expect. I think it's going to give me a little bit more of an advantage because he's been through everything. I know what to look out for because of him."
He made four pitching appearances in the Gulf Coast League (for rookies) since his comeback from Tommy John surgery.
He was then promoted to the A-Short Season Williamsport Crosscutters.
