D-Backs cut ties with Gordon: The Arizona Diamondbacks released right-hander Tom Gordon, one of four pitchers in major league history with 135 victories and 155 saves. Gordon had an injury plagued season. He started off on the disabled list after having offseason elbow surgery and spent only a week with Arizona before suffering a severe hamstring injury in a May 3 game at Milwaukee that forced him back on the disabled list. Gordon, 41, is 138-126 with 158 saves and a 3.96 ERA in 890 games in 21 seasons. He is fifth among active pitchers in career appearances and 14th in saves. "I still feel I can play the game I love," said Gordon, who was released after giving up 10 earned runs in 6 2/3 innings during a recent rehab assignment at Class AAA Reno. "I still want to pitch in a World Series."

Fantasy Analysis

Gordon has played with eight teams during a 21-year career that began in Kansas City in 1988 and included time with Boston, the Chicago Cubs, Houston, the Chicago White Sox, the New York Yankees and Philadelphia. He was on the disabled list when the Phillies won the World Series last year. "Hes had an unbelievable career, and hopefully it continues somewhere," Arizona general manager Josh Byrnes said. "He just wasn't progressing at the rate we hoped, and we decided to bring some closure to it, at least from our end." Gordon could latch on with another team, but he won't be a closer and just give that squad some middle relief. He is not worth holding onto in Fantasy.
