Dee Strange-Gordon
SS FA
CBS Sports' Scott Miller hears that the Mariners are "hitting the Dodgers hard" with trade inquiries on Dee Gordon.
The Dodgers aren't necessarily shopping Gordon, but they're listening, and Miller says they've fielded "tons of inquiries." Gordon possesses an ugly .260/.299/.315 batting line and has graded poorly defensively, but he's stolen 56 bases in his first 143 games and the Dodgers still love his upside. The Mariners' incumbent at shortstop is Brendan Ryan, who is a defensive wizard but might as well be holding a flyswatter at the plate.
