As a shortstop, his arm remains among the best in the game and he&#x2019;s been an anchor on the dirt while Minnes...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">12839</guid><pubDate>Mon, 08 Aug 2022 17:35:03 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Nick Gordon Suddenly Living Up to Former Top-Prospect Status</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/news-rumors/minnesota-twins/nick-gordon-suddenly-living-up-to-former-top-prospect-status-r12838/</link><description>&#xA0;




	The Twins drafted Nick Gordon with the fifth overall pick in the 2014 MLB Draft. There can be plenty of pressure put on a top-5 draft pick, but that was even more true for Gordon.
