While the Mariners aren’t expected to do a lot on the field if baseball returns this season, they may have one of the best clubhouses in the game in terms of personality. At the core of that is Dee Gordon, who enters his third—and possibly last—year in Seattle.
Since Gordon’s arrival in 2018 following a trade from the Miami Marlins, the now 32-year-old Gold Glove second baseman immediately became—and has remained—one of the leading voices in a clubhouse that has significantly and rapidly changed over the past couple of years. Gordon’s energetic personality and commitment to his craft has been second to none, inspiring many young ball players that have come through the systems of the organizations he’s been a part of.
