31 HR, 44 2B
99 R/122 RBI
83 K (12.5%)
6.7 bWAR (career-high)
6.7 fWAR (career-high)
147 OPS+ (47 percent above average, career high)
143 wRC+
I mean, if he wants to come back, you have to try at that point, don’t you?

I got giddy about Gordon and forgot to mention Khalil Lee. I wouldn’t want to see them rush him. He’s having a good season for his age at AA, but not so good you want to push him to MLB to start the year.
Some seasoning at Omaha will do him well.
