Standing in at 6-foot-3, 250-pounds the imposing freshman took the mound for an inning in relief where he was efficient and struck out two batters. Despite his size, Gordon is an athlete on the mound with impressive movement skills. One of the top arms in his class and in the region, Gordon was able to run his fastball up to 90 mph sitting 87-89 in his inning. Gordon has advanced and still developing command of his fastball, showing some ability to spot up his fastball to both sides of the plate and keeping his misses away from the heart of the plate. While he didn’t need it in this outing Gordon showed a tight breaking slider in the low-80s during warmups. Gordon continues to impress in each outing in front of our staff as he has an advanced set of tools across the board for someone his age. Another underclassmen in the Badger State to monitor going forward.

Gordon was able to run his fastball up to 88 mph multiple times throughout his outing where he tossed five scoreless innings allowing four hits and one walk while striking out seven batters. Gordon is another arm to follow throughout the summer circuit.

RHP/1B Carter Gordon (Germantown, 2027) authored one of the top performances we saw during the ‘Rising Stars’ showcase circuit during our time at the MOSH. Listed at a ultra advanced 6-foot-3, 250-pounds, Gordon started off his day by taking a loud round of BP, regardless of age. During his round, the righty starts balanced and tall, before toe-tapping into an aggressive yet controlled foot strike. He reached a max EV of 98.7 mph, and averaged 90.4 mph, both of which are advanced numbers for someone his age. While Gordon impressed during the BP portion of the event, he really stole the show during his ‘pen. Despite his young age Gordon syncs up his large frame exceptionally well and pairs it with a clean, quick arm that is advanced well above his years. During his ‘pen, Gordon ran his fastball all the way up to 88.1 mph, and sat in the 84-87 mph range on this pitch that plays with some major life through the zone. As for his offspeeds, he killed spin on a low-80s changeup that featured some arm side run with depth. He also spun in two different breaking balls, the first being a more traditional curveball with 11/5 action in the low-70s and the second a tight slider in the mid-70s. Already at his young age, Gordon showed off some impressive facets to his game and he still boasts plenty of upside in his large frame.

Gordon has a XL frame and has the possibility of adding even more size and strength. On the mound Gordon’s super loose clean downhill delivery created fastballs in the 78-81 mph range. Even with his imposing stature Gordon showcases some true touch and feel while on the bump as he was all around the zone, and also showed feel for spin. With a low heartbeat type demeanor, Gordon will be a name to follow as he progresses.
