Head coach Tim Corbin on Gordon: “I like Rob’s abilities a great deal. He has very good instincts for the game and is a good decision maker. His defensive movements are very smooth and under control. He also showed solid bat to ball skills at the plate with a very good baserunning acumen. As he gets more physical, he will start to really develop.”
