Dee Gordon States His Case

Dee Gordon is having an inpressive season thus far for the Dodgers and is making a case for his inclusion on the National League All-Star team. He is third on the team in batting average with .286 (after being well over .300 for the majority of the season) and is leading the Major Leagues in Stolen Bases with 34 and has only been caught 3 times. He also leads the team with 4 triples. I looked for the Dodgers to try to trade Dee Gordon during Spring Training because he had gone from "prospect" status to the age of "suspect" and after the Dodgers signed their Cuban connection of Erisbel Arruebarrena at Shortstop and Alex Guerrero at Second, the Dodgers wouldn't have room for him or he would be relegated to another season in Albuquerque. He has been one of the pleasant surprises on the Dodgers this season and in Major League Baseball.
