Gordon Pain Free

Tom Gordon's nerve surgery worked:

The right-hander, whom the Diamondbacks signed to a one-year deal earlier this month, is coming off ulnar nerve transposition surgery on his right elbow, a procedure in which the nerve is moved to a different area.

And so far, Gordon couldn't be more encouraged by how he feels.

"Every single day since 2006, I've had soreness, aching and sharp pain," said Gordon, who has also had shoulder problems. "This is just a really good feeling."

So now the question is can the lack of pain make up for three years of aging? If he can return to his 2005 form, the DBacks made a great deal.
