Tanner

Gordon

Talk about an unexpected result. Gordon came into Saturday with an 8.80 ERA and a 1.76 WHIP over his first three starts, but he was fantastic against San Diego, with the only run allowed coming on a fielder’s choice in the fifth off the bat of David Peralta. It’s hard to believe in Gordon given his previous numbers on top of playing for a very bad baseball team, but he at least showed he’s capable of not being disastrous.

The 26-year-old hurler will rejoin the Rockies’ rotation for Saturday night’s showdown against the Padres. Gordon has really struggled in three starts with the big-league club this season, registering an 8.80 ERA, 1.76 WHIP and a 12/2 K/BB ratio across 15 1/3 innings. He’s not a recommended streaming option against the Padres on Saturday.

Gordon gave up four runs over six innings in his spot start Saturday and has compiled an ugly 8.80 ERA and 1.76 WHIP over his three starts. The right-hander will head back to Triple-A after operating as the 27th man for Colorado for their doubleheader against San Francisco on Saturday

Gordon took the ball for the second game of Saturday’s twin bill at Oracle Park and gave the Rockies a chance, allowing just four runs on nine hits over six frames. He struck out five and didn’t hand out a free pass. The 26-year-old rookie right-hander has been hit hard this season in his first taste of the majors, compiling a bloated 8.80 ERA, 1.76 WHIP and 12/2 K/BB ratio across 15 1/3 innings (three starts). Needless to say, Gordon can be safely ignored in all fantasy formats.

Gordon was shellacked from six runs on eight hits, with half of those ending up over the fence, on Friday against the Mets in his second career start. The 26-year-old righty figures to be back at some point, but there isn’t exactly a spot for him anymore with Germán Márquez (elbow) set to return later this weekend.

Gordon, a 26-year-old rookie, came into this start with a 5.35 ERA and 18.5 K% this season in Triple-A. The Mets made him look worse than that as the bottom of their order clobbered four homers and they had at least one base runner in every inning. Stay away from Gordon, even on the road.

Gordon recovered a from a four-run second inning to pitch into the seventh, so that’s something. He allowed eight hits, walked none and struck out four. He’ll likely remain in the rotation and face the Mets next.

Gordon is up to make his MLB debut against the Brewers on Sunday. The 26-year-old right-hander posted a 4.91 ERA and 36/10 K/BB over his 40 1/3 innings in Triple-A. It would be a mistake to trust the 26-year-old as a streaming option for Sunday’s tilt.

Hudson is now off the roster with Tanner Gordon coming up from Albuquerque in the corresponding move. Hudson was unsurprisingly ineffective while with Colorado with a 5.84 ERA and 1.64 WHIP and ugly 48/46 K/BB over 86 1/3 innings. If he doesn’t get claimed or acquired via trade, he can elect free agency or report to Triple-A. The former seems more likely than the latter.

The 26-year-old right-hander has made nine starts in the minors this season, primarily at Triple-A Albuquerque, where he has compiled a 4.91 ERA, 1.44 WHIP and a 36/10 K/BB ratio over his 40 1/3 innings of work. Ryan Feltner, who had originally been scheduled to pitch on Sunday, will be pushed back until next week.
