I hope I have been clear that there is no KC Royals player in my adult life that is more important to me than Alex Gordon. I truly think our entire final homestand of 2019 should have been a tribute to the man and all that he has accomplished in his career. However, I also believe that bringing him back for 2020 is a terrible mistake.
Alex Gordon had a decent 2019. He was nearly a league-average offensive player and he won another Gold Glove. Some of our opinions, though, of his 2019 performance are rosier than reality.
