Dee Gordon: Fractured Toe (5/22)

[revo]

Probably out 6-to-8 weeks

The plot thickens: He may not qualify at 2B now in some keeper leagues because Cano could be back around the same time as Gordon.

Mariners are saying only 2-to-4 weeks, but I don’t buy that.

Supposedly happened May 9th, so he's been playing on it...I can buy that timeline.

Mariners' Dee Gordon: Doesn't expect to miss extended time
May 22, 2018 6:07 PM EDT | by RotoWire Staff

Manager Scott Servais said he doesn't expect Gordon (toe) to miss much more than 10 days, Shannon Drayer of 710 ESPN Seattle reports.

Servais added that the fracture in Gordon's toe is a minor one, which make sense given he was able to swipe a bag and score the winning run in Sunday's extra-innings win over the Tigers after suffering the injury. He'll get some time off to let the issue heal, but early indications are that the speedster won't require a lengthy stay on the shelf. Gordon was hitting a solid .304/.330/.386 with 16 stolen bases in 45 games prior to landing on the DL. Look for Gordon Beckham to fill in at second base until Gordon is healthy.

And he's back already!

after seeing what happened with Buxton, i wonder if having Gordon return early is as foolish as shaking an iron putter at the sky, on a golf course, during a lightning storm?

Broken bones can be different. Gordon's was from the top (fouling a ball of his foot), Buxton's may well have been different.
