Dee Gordon Looks To Bounce Back After Down Week
6 years agoSeattle Mariners second baseman Dee Gordon has struggled over the past seven games, hitting only .219 to drop his season batting average to .280. Gordon got off to a white-hot start this season but has had to adjust after suffering a broken toe and making a position change from the outfield to second base. Over his last 130 at-bats, Gordon is slashing a mediocre .246/.261/.285 after hitting .298 combined between April and May. The speedster does have 21 stolen bases on the season but has a whopping six walks in 314 at-bats. The light-hitting leadoff man also carries an exit velocity of 83.1 mph on the season, well below the league average of 88.7. Gordon unfortunately is too one-dimensional to really have a fantasy impact outside of stolen bases right now.
