Nick Gordon Stats

Updating a previous report, Minnesota Twins shortstop Nick Gordon (head) cleared the concussion protocol on Monday after leaving the Grapefruit League game against the Boston Red Sox on a cart. Gordon suffered a head contusion during a scary collision with outfielder Max Kepler. He has a minor headache and is considered day-to-day. It's good news for the 26-year-old, as he should be able to open the season on the major league roster as a backup infielder. Gordon hit .240/.292/.355 with four home runs, 23 RBI, 19 runs scored and 10 stolen bases in 73 games in his rookie season in 2021, but he'll only be worth drafting in single-year leagues in deep AL-only leagues for middle infield depth.

Minnesota Twins shortstop Nick Gordon was forced to leave the Grapefruit League game against the Boston Red Sox on a cart on Monday after a scary collision with outfielder Max Kepler. Gordon walked to the cart under his own power before leaving the game. The extent of the 26-year-old's injury is unknown, but with Opening Day coming later this week, there's a good chance he won't be ready for the start of the regular season. Gordon was having a fine spring, too, hitting .333 (8-for-24) with three extra-base hits in 11 games. In his first taste of big-league action last year, Gordon slashed .240/.292/.355 with four home runs, 23 RBI, 19 runs scored and 10 stolen bases in 216 plate appearances over 73 games.

Minnesota Twins infielder/outfielder Nick Gordon collected a double, a stolen base, and a run scored in Wednesday's victory over the Cubs. Gordon ripped a 97.9 MPH double, stole second base, and then scored on a sacrifice fly. The 25-year-old hasn't seen everyday playing time, but perhaps he should, as he's batting .326 with four runs scored, two homers, nine RBI, and five stolen bases in September. He could provide a spark in the batting average, runs, and stolen base categories for managers in the fantasy playoffs, and he comes with multi-position eligibility.
