60 grade glove at SS with some of best hands in the class and shows the ability to make strong, accurate throws from any arm angle. Bat has been trending up over the past year flashing as a plus tool with improved barrel control and gap power to all fields showing up consistently. Skinny 6<92>1<94> frame that will fill out as he matures with more power coming. 

 

PG -

 

Rob Gordon is a 2021 SS with a 6-1 174 lb. frame from Smyrna, GA who attends East Cobb Baseball Home School. Slender live bodied build with huge physical projection remaining. Very quick first step on defense, shows plus range is balanced through the ball, plays low and under the ball, refined footwork, has quick hands and a very quick and compact release from multiple arm slots, has a feel and a flair for playing defense. Right handed hitter, deep hand drop load, short and direct swing, gets to his front side well with his shit, line drive gap to gap approach. Excellent student, verbal commitment to Vanderbilt

 

 Prospect Worldwide -

 

Rob Gordon – SS: Range could be better at Shortstop, but shows a fantastic 1st step to make up for some of it. The body has some projection left, and there is potential to see Above-Average (55) Grades moving forward. Although, I do think he fits best at 3B. Fairly balanced hitter with (50) Hit and (50+) Power Potential. Not looking to take many walks, with his aggressive approach, but it works for him. If the plate discipline ticks up the offensive ceiling is pretty impressive. 

 

  6-26-20 -  Prep Baseball Report -

 

Vanderbilt recruit. Wiry frame at 6 feet, 176 pounds with strength to come. Twitchy athleticism. Quick, loose hands from the right side produce gap power. Maintains short, direct path. Glides on his feet, aggressive baserunner. Moves well at shortstop with good internal clock


Mack's spin - 

This is a kid with mad defensive skills that might be served better by going to college to work on his hitting.

Still, someone will draft him in the first five rounds. You can't have enough ++ defensive middle fielders in your organization.
