Dee Gordon - SS - Dodgers

Dee Gordon went 0-for-4 and committed his second error at shortstop on Monday.

It might not have been a good thing that Gordon homered in his first week back in the majors, as he's gone just 2-for-25 since. Gordon has terrific fantasy upside with his speed, but he needs to do much better than this if he hopes to push Hanley Ramirez to third base.

Dee Gordon - SS - Dodgers

Dee Gordon took the Marlins' Kevin Slowey deep for his second big-league homer Saturday.

Gordon now has as many homers as Matt Kemp this season. So that's something. He's made a nice impression in seven games so far, and the Dodgers have to be thinking about pushing Hanley Ramirez back to third base when he returns next month.

Dee Gordon - SS - Dodgers

Dee Gordon went 2-for-4 with a two-run triple and two steals Saturday against the Giants.

The Dodgers' ideal lineup on Opening Day would have been Gordon at shortstop and Hanley Ramirez at third base. Ideally, Gordon will continue to impress while Ramirez is out and the Dodgers will push Ramirez over when he returns. Gordon's speed could give him value in even the shallowest of leagues if he plays regularly.

Dee Gordon - SS - Dodgers

Dodgers recalled SS Dee Gordon from Triple-A Albuquerque.

Gordon is taking the roster spot left vacant by the injured Hanley Ramirez. Gordon hasn't handled hitting at the major league level well in the past. He's got speed to burn, but as they say, you can't steal first. Ignore him in most fantasy formats until he proves he's able to get on base at a somewhat-regular clip.

Dee Gordon - SS - Dodgers

CBS Sports' Jon Heyman reports that the Dodgers will call up SS Dee Gordon from Triple-A Albuquerque.

Gordon will look to provide an offensive spark for the Dodgers with Hanley Ramirez on the disabled list. The 25-year-old is batting .314/.397/.390 with 14 steals over 25 games in the Pacific Coast League and is worth a flier in NL-only and deeper mixed leagues.

Dee Gordon - SS - Dodgers

The Dodgers are considering calling up SS Dee Gordon from Triple-A Albuquerque.

With Hanley Ramirez likely to be placed on the disabled list, the Dodgers will go with either Justin Sellers at shortstop, or promote Gordon, who has more offensive potential but has struggled with his defense this season. Gordon is batting .314/.397/.390 with 14 steals over 25 games in the Pacific Coast League.

Dee Gordon - SS - Dodgers

Dee Gordon has begun taking grounders at second base during pregame workouts at Triple-A Albuquerque.

Gordon has struggled with his throws from the hole at shortstop and doesn't have great range to his right despite his freakish athleticism, so the Dodgers are considering moving him to a different position. The 25-year-old is batting .302/.368/.417 this season on the farm with 12 stolen bases in 14 attempts. He should climb to the major league level at some point this summer.

Dee Gordon - SS - Dodgers

Dodgers manager Don Mattingly said the team is satisfied with Justin Sellers at shortstop and is not considering calling up Dee Gordon.

Sellers is batting just .176/.263/.265, but he's provided good defense other than one game where he made a pair of errors. Meanwhile, Gordon is hitting .319/.385/.468 with eight steals at Triple-A, but evidently a promotion isn't on the horizon.

Dee Gordon - SS - Dodgers

Dodgers optioned INF Dee Gordon to Triple-A Albuquerque.

There was some thought that the Dodgers would put Gordon on their Opening Day roster to help back up Luis Cruz at shortstop while Hanley Ramirez (thumb) is out. But it's not going to happen. Gordon has great speed but can be ignored in most fantasy drafts this season.

Dee Gordon - SS - Dodgers

Dee Gordon (ankle) is back in the lineup Friday.

Gordon had missed the last few days with a sprained left ankle. He's playing shortstop and Luis Cruz is at third base, which could be the alignment the Dodgers use while Hanley Ramirez is out. They're also considering using Cruz at short and a combination of Juan Uribe, Jerry Hairston and Nick Punto at the hot corner.

Dee Gordon is day-to-day with a sprained left ankle.

Gordon rolled his ankle in a home plate collision on Monday. However, it doesn't sound like a major concern right now.

Dee Gordon - SS - Dodgers

Dee Gordon went 2-for-3 with two runs scored and a pair of doubles in Thursday's tie against the Rangers.

Gordon has now swiped seven bags already this spring if you include the pair he stole versus Mexico Wednesday. The speedster is expected to begin 2013 at Triple-A but could eventually get a shot if the Dodgers give up on Luis Cruz and move Hanley Ramirez back to third base.

Dee Gordon - SS - Dodgers

Dee Gordon went 2-for-2 with an RBI double, two stolen bases and two runs scored in an exhibition game against Mexico on Wednesday.

Gordon also had a bunt single. The speedy shortstop has been active on the basepaths this spring and has also shown good patience, but he doesn't figure to get a chance at playing time unless the Dodgers give up on Luis Cruz and move Hanley Ramirez back to third base. Still, he'd be an automatic pickup in deeper mixed leagues if (or when) he gets a shot.
Mar 6 - 5:52 PM
Dee Gordon - SS - Dodgers

Dee Gordon singled, walked twice, scored two runs and stole two bases in Friday's loss to the Angels.

Not a bad way to fill up the boxscore. There's no doubting Gordon's speed, but he batted just .228 in 87 games with the Dodgers last season and will likely begin this season with Triple-A Albuquerque.
