Nick Gordon

The Kansas City Royals released Nick Gordon on Thursday.

Fantasy Impact

Gordon hit .260/.327/.320 over 16 games with Triple-A Omaha. He’ll now look to sign with another organization.

The Kansas City Royals have acquired Nick Gordon from the Baltimore Orioles in exchange for cash considerations.

Fantasy Impact

Gordon will start with Triple-A Omaha and provide versatile depth for the Royals, as he can play the infield and outfield. Over his career, Gordon has posted a .244/.283/.386 slash line in over 1,000 plate appearances. While he’s not currently fantasy-relevant, his versatility could earn him a call-up later in the season.

The Orioles re-assigned INF/OF Nick Gordon to minor league camp.

Fantasy Impact

Gordon was one of seven players optioned or re-assigned on Tuesday as roster cuts continue with the season less than 10 days away. He should open the season in Triple-A.

The Marlins have designated Nick Gordon for assignment.

Fantasy Impact

Gordon will lose his spot on the 40-man roster to Derek Hill, who was recently claimed off waivers. Despite his struggles at the plate, he could draw interest on the waiver wire from teams in need of a versatile defender.

Nick Gordon is out of the starting lineup for the Marlins Sunday.

Fantasy Impact

Gordon will head to the bench for a regular day of rest Sunday. Cristian Pache will start in center field and bat seventh against the Braves.
