East Notes: Gordon, Red Sox, Hanley, Harvey

By Jeff Todd | September 22, 2015 at 8:28am CDT

Clark Spencer of the Miami Herald highlights the charitable efforts of Marlins second baseman Dee Gordon, whose work in the domestic violence arena was motivated by personal tragedy. Gordon has started a program to help children who have lost parents as a result of a domestic incident, and is the spokesperson for the club’s domestic violence prevention night this week. While Miami has had its share of on-field disappointment this year, Gordon has been a clear bright spot, improving upon his breakout 2014. It will be interesting to see whether and when the team looks into an attempt at a contract extension with Gordon, who can be controlled through 2018.

Here are some more notes from the east to start the day:

  • Whatever else may come of this season for the Red Sox, the development of young starters Eduardo Rodriguez and Henry Owens has been promising, writes Brian MacPherson of the Providence Journal. After seeing a previous group of prospects falter in their efforts to make the final step, Boston has reason to feel good about where both of its high-upside lefties are headed after their debut years.
  • The Red Sox’ trial of Hanley Ramirez at first base may begin in short order, Rob Bradford of WEEI.com writes. The infield-turned-outfielder is set to meet with the coaching staff today to discuss an activation date. There isn’t much time for Ramirez to showcase his potential at the position, let alone to adapt and improve, but the early returns could be important as new president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski charts an offseason strategy.
  • The Mets’ handling of Matt Harvey continues to draw discussion and intrigue, especially after the team collapsed following Harvey’s early exit from his most recent outing. Ken Davidoff of the New York Post and Kristie Ackert of the New York Daily News break down the latest, including GM Sandy Alderson’s comments on his recent conversations with surgeon James Andrews. According to the Mets’ GM, Andrews did not cite the 180-inning cap that had previously been attributed to him. The situation remains fluid, per Alderson, and the team will continue to monitor Harvey’s workload on a start-to-start basis.

    This Hanley thing is getting more drawn out then the Lebron Announcement. Why are they treating him like glass, For 20 mil get your backside on the field and play till something breaks

      Then the fans would be complaining because his performance is down. Just wait until he is healthy.

      They’re treating him like glass because he is. He doesn’t make ANY of that slary worth it if he’s injured all the time.

    Back to back posts (with Billy Hamilton) of BR links going to the wrong player with the same name. The next post will probably be about Jose Fernandez.

    In fact, sources described the Harvey situation as so fluid that it could not even be described in complete senten

    As a Marlins fan, I personally think we should trade Gordon. We won’t get nearly what we gave up for him in that horrible trade with the Dodgers, but I would sell high on him as fast as possible for multiple reasons

      How about a 3 team deal involving the Pirates and Yankees. Pirates acquire Dee Gordon, Yankees acquire Neil Walker, Marlins acquire Alen Hanson and some Yankees prospect.

      Imagine what Seattle is thinking about the Capps-Morrison deal about now?

      “Geez.. You got Capps and all I got was this Lomo for the holidays..”

      You’re absolutely right. They should sell high on Fernandez, Yelich, and Ozuna while they’re at it.

    Rodriguez and Owens are the only promising young-player stories to come out of this season. Betts and Bogaerts have had very good seasons, and Shaw and JBJ have shown promise in smaller samples.

    I know papers need things to print and all, but how about focusing not on Harvey’s innings limit, but on how sharp he looked and how it might help to be rested as they enter the playoffs? Their first round opponent will be the Dodgers, and Greinke and Kershaw will have like 40 more innings pitched each than any of the Mets starters (aside from maybe Colon).

    Also, the Mets need to sort out their bullpen to see who will make the roster. In Harvey’s start, Robles looked pretty bad, Gilmartin and Goeddel looked solid, and Carlos Torres probably pitched himself off the roster.
