Well, Brian Gordon’s contract was purchased by a Korean baseball team and guess what? Brian Gordon is leaving the Yankees. Read the report HERE. Damn, it was fun while it lasted, but let’s face facts, with Bartolo Colon and Phil Hughes back, what were we going to do with Brian Gordon? It’s almost not fair to give him a taste of the high life and then push him in the bullpen, or worse, keep him down in AAA again.
As a New York Yankee, Gordon was 0-1 with a 5.23 ERA in 2 games. Gordon had 10.1 IPs, struck out 4, gave up 6 runs off 12 hits.
I wanted to let you all know about this story because quite simply, when I read it, I felt bad, yet happy for the guy. Put it this way, coming to the Yankees is probably a dream for anyone, but for a 14 year veteran who barely ever played in the majors, it was huge. His debut was great and he did his job. He had his moment. Good for him.
Anyway, wish him well, it was brief Brian, but it was damn fun. Good Luck to you.
