Gordon agreed to a one-year, $2.5 million contract with the Marlins on Friday, avoiding arbitration, Ken Rosenthal of FOXSports.com reports.

Analysis:

Gordon will make five times as much as he made in 2014 in his first year of arbitration, and the 26-year-old will receive additional $25,000 if he earns another All-Star selection in his first year with Miami. Written off by some following a disappointing start to his career, Gordon hit .289/.326/.378 with 64 steals in 83 attempts last season, though he was relatively lucky with a .346 BABIP (.326 for career).
