Gordon is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rangers.

EDGE Analysis

The lefty-hitting Gordon will get a break as Texas sends southpaw Andrew Heaney to the bump for the series finale. Bryan De La Cruz will pick up the start in left field in place of Gordon.

Gordon went 2-for-4 with a walk, two runs scored and two stolen bases in Wednesday's 9-1 win over San Diego.

EDGE Analysis

Gordon had gone just 1-for-15 with no stolen bases in seven games coming into Wednesday's contest. He's now slashing .230/.260/.374 on the year with five homers, 18 RBI and 15 runs scored while going 5-for-7 in stolen base attempts. Gordon should continue to serve as the Marlins' primary left fielder against right-handed pitching.

Gordon isn't in the Marlins' lineup Saturday against the Diamondbacks.

EDGE Analysis

With left-hander Jordan Montgomery set to take the mound for the D-backs, the lefty-hitting Gordon will step out of the lineup. While he sits, Bryan De La Cruz, Jazz Chisholm and Dane Myers will start across the Marlins' outfield.

Gordon went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Monday's loss to the Dodgers.

EDGE Analysis

The 28-year-old outfielder took Walker Buehler deep in the top of the second inning to briefly tie the game at 3-3, but Los Angeles took the lead for good in the bottom of the frame. Gordon has gone yard in back-to-back games and is up to five homers on the year in only 32 games -- a surprising power display for a player whose career high is nine home runs in 138 games, set in 2022. The rest of Gordon's numbers are far less impressive, and he's slashing .212/.244/.424 with nine runs, 16 RBI and only one steal in two attempts.

Gordon went 4-for-4 with a three-run homer, a double, two runs scored and a walk in Sunday's win over Oakland.

EDGE Analysis

Gordon was perfect at the plate Sunday, starting with his three-run jack in the first inning. Since his last multi-hit performance April 20, he'd been stuck in a 3-for-26 slump over 12 games. His homer Sunday was his fourth of the year and first since April 14. Gordon bumped his slash line to .207/.241/.390 with seven extra-base hits and 15 RBI through 87 plate appearances.

Gordon is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Rockies, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The lefty-hitting Gordon usually exits the lineup when the Marlins oppose southpaws, but he'll hit the bench Thursday with a right-hander (Peter Lambert) taking the hill for Colorado. Gordon's move to the bench comes while he's gone 2-for-30 at the dish over his last 10 games, dropping his batting average to .167 for the season. Dane Myers will get the start in left field Thursday, and he could soon displace Gordon as the Marlins' preferred option at the position if Gordon's struggles at the dish continue.

Gordon is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Nationals.

EDGE Analysis

The lefty-hitting Gordon will stay on the bench for the second game in a row while the Marlins face another southpaw (Patrick Corbin) on Sunday. Bryan De La Cruz will step in for Gordon in left field and will bat second.

Gordon isn't in the Marlins' lineup for Saturday's game against the Nationals.

EDGE Analysis

Gordon will retreat to the dugout as the Nationals prepare to send left-hander Mitchell Parker to the mound to start Saturday's contest. Gordon's absence will move Bryan De La Cruz into left field while Josh Bell serves as the DH and Emmanuel Rivera starts at first base.

Gordon went 1-for-3 with a stolen base in Friday's 3-1 loss to the Nationals.

EDGE Analysis

The 28-year-old continues to hold down a strong-side platoon role in left field, but Gordon's done little to earn it. The steal was his first of the season, and through 61 plate appearances he's slashing just .211/.246/.404 with three homers, five runs and 12 RBI. The Marlins have the worst record in the NL at 6-21, and it may not be long before struggling veterans with limited upside like Gordon get shoved aside in favor of prospects like Victor Mesa.
