The pitcher was talking trash to Gomez though. I know he must have looked at the ball for a split second too long or some ********, but that honestly shouldn't be a big deal.
I have a small man crush on Carlos Gomez, and I admit he kinda did play that badly. Just run. Run with all your absolutely insane speed.
I also have a small amount of resentment about that trade. Maybe I'm just a baseball wizard or something, but I knew Gomez was going places, and I knew Fernando Martinez was going to bomb. Trading for Johan Santana was a good move, but the Mets tremendously overestimated F-Mart. I'm also drooling over the prospect of an outfield consisting of Carlos Gomez, Juan Lagares, and somebody else. I don't think you even need a third outfielder with fielding of that caliber.
Brb, gonna cry because Gomez is on another team and Lagares is on the DL.
