So when he runs down a ball that no one else in the league would probably get to, will you say "what a surprise, Gomez caught that." My point is everyone focuses on everything negative he does and not enough of his positive. Like many have said, if he was hitting 7th or 8th, his offense wouldn't be as big of a deal.Geez, I make one comment and people automatically assume that I hate Gomez and only criticize him. He is great defensively, and I don't mind him if he's hitting low in the order. Either way, his crappy at-bats will piss me off though. All I was doing was making a comment that he pops out a lot. I didn't say anything else about him. He definitely brings value to this team in certain areas. I love his defense.Ok. I know he pops out a lot too. I'm just starting to get sick of people criticizing every mistake he makes but not giving him credit for the good things he does. I wasn't sure which camp you were in.
