Cole Grodon, 2021 Binghamton Rumble Ponies Team Card

Background: 

Cole Gordon, Starting Pitcher, Bats Left, Throws Right, DOB 10/2/1995 in Tampa, FL; USA; 6'5", 226 pounds; Drafted by the New York Mets 2019 June Amateur Draft - Round: 32, Pick: 11, Overall: 958 from Mississippi State University (Mississippi State, MS); High School: George M. Steinbrenner HS (Lutz, FL);

What a month of August in AA for Cole Gordon - 4 and 0, 0.00 ERA, 4 games, 26 innings, 5 walks, 30 Ks;  For that he was named the MiLB Pitcher of the Month Award winner in the Northeast League for the month of August.

I was able to see him pitch in August and was very impressed.  He uses superior breaking stuff to keep hitters off-balance and then uses a well placed low 90's fastball to finish them off.  

A former College Teammate of Jake Mangum at Mississippi State, Mack noted how he mostly pitched in relief in college when he was drafted.

Amazing Avenue: "Gordon throws from a high-three-quarters arm slot with a simple delivery consisting of a slight hip turn and leg lift. His fastball sits in the high-80s-to-low-90s, with arm-side run and sink. In addition, he can also cut it. He complements his fastball with a nasty slider with tightly spun late bite. He can control both of his pitches, mixing them effectively and pounding the zone."

Tom Had Cole as his #31 Mets Prospect.

Prospects 1500.com has him as the #50 Mets Prospect.

Michael Mayer of Metsmerized.com had Cole as the #29 Mets Prospect.

Joe DeMayo SNY.TV: 6 Mets prospects who can make an impact in 2022 - "Since Gordon is now more of a starter, it would stand to reason that he could also be an option to pitch multiple innings out of the pen potentially as soon as 2022, where he should start the year with Triple-A Syracuse."

I also see Cole starting 2022 in Syracuse as part of a very packed rotation.  He'll be a phone call away should injuries occur in Flushing.  I hope they don't, but if they do, I think Cole will be ready.
