Alex Gordon
May 5, 2008
– Myrtle Beach has grown impatience with their high priced thirdbasemen Adrian Beltran who is making over 13 million this year but is only hitting .143 on the season with no homeruns and only 6 runs driven in so they traded away some of thier future for a solid young thirdbasemen in Alex Gordon. Gordon should blossom now that mega-hype is in the rear view mirror in Cambridge. Myrtle did give up alot for Gordon in Jacob Ellsbury who is a dynamic, slashing type player who could be in Cambridge’s outfield for many years to come. Mike Jacobs was also in the deal but is not much more than a throw in player in this deal as a power hitting firstbasemen in case of an injury in Cambridge to Helton.
