Orioles Agree To Minors Deal With Nick Gordon
2 days agoThe Baltimore Orioles announced on Tuesday that they agreed to terms with free-agent infielder/outfielder Nick Gordon on a minor-league deal. Gordon will give the Orioles some extra utility depth in both the infield and outfield heading into spring training in February. The 29-year-old left-handed hitter was the fifth overall pick by the Minnesota Twins in 2014 out of a high school in Florida. He debuted in the big leagues in 2021 and has slashed .244/.283/.386 with a .669 OPS, 23 homers, 112 RBI, 21 stolen bases and 106 runs in 338 games over his four seasons. Last year he played in 95 games with the Miami Marlins and hit .227 (59-for-260) with eight homers, 32 RBI, five steals and 29 runs scored. Gordon's best season came in 2022, when he slashed .272/.316/.427 with nine homers, 50 RBI and six steals in 136 games. At best, he'll likely be a bench player for the O's.
