wahoohendoo Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 looks like a stubbed toe and probably done for the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishin58 Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 Ya mean the Jim EDMOND approach, get a late jump on the ball, then show off the slow white boy skills and make a diving catch. Yes he was great at it! But it just seemed to happen every other game! So where are the Go GO haters, they hiding in there caves now?

zamboni Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 WOW. Not only is Delmon putting up an 0 fer at the dish, he just horribly misplayed yet another pop fly. Meanwhile, Matt Garza whom we dealt for this joker is already putting up decent numbers this season. Horrible trade. I hear Cuddyers worse than Young one more time, I am gonna scream. What a chump Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishin58 Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 Now that we are up to the AS break, and most guys on here have gave up on GOGo already.Here is a guy most people fall over themselves for, but whom has been playing everyday and not being messed with as far as playing time. This other player is also almost 2 years older.His stat line G AB R H 2B 3B HR RBI BB K SB CS AVG OBP SLG OPS 2009 81 331 56 79 20 2 7 33 43 99 31 8 .239 .326 .375 .701 Gomez's 77 187 28 44 11 3 2 18 14 39 7 4 .235 .291 .358 .649 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SledNeck Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 BJ Upton?Why is Gomez such a bad base stealer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishin58 Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 You are correct, so I wonder if he is being rode like a 3 dollar mule by their fans? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crothmeier Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 why cant he play like he did yesterday every game? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coach1310 Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 In my opinion the bottom line with Gomez is, HE SHOULDN'T BE IN THE MAJORS YET! He is up here learning the hard way because he can flat out play defense and if we sent him to AAA the public would rant and rave about how we got snowed over with the Santana trade.He'll come around..... all he has to do is hit .260 and run the ball down in the outfield like he does and that will work for me!

crothmeier Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 yeah, he either looks completely lost out there, or is on, like he was in the game against the yankees when he robbed the grand slam, and yesterday against the sox when he went on a hitting tear.he's young, i hope he develops more at the plate and the twins keep him.

luckyworm Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 Gomez isn't going anywhere. This guy is the real deal. I consider him a top 3...that's right top 3 defensive center fielder in baseball right now. He runs like a horse and his arm has gotten very strong and accurate.I figured he would struggle in the first half with his bat, but at the end he showed signs that he is due for a breakout 2nd half.Gardy needs to keep getting him in the lineup while he is hot. Hopefully he can have a strong second half. I really like this guy...give hime 2-3 more years and he will be an all-star. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crothmeier Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 i completely agree. He's got potential. gold glove defenseman, and a .275 hitter that can bat leadoff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue_healer_guy Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Can't stand it no more. Balls are hit 40ft over the fence and he's crawling on top like I DON'T KNOW WHAT! HE HAS TAKEN OVER FOR MY LEAST FAVORITE ANNOYING TWIN. IT USED TO BE PUNTO, BUT HE IS HITTING 213 NOW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neighbor_guy Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 GO GO GO AWAY!!!!!!!! But then that would be admitting that we got a whole lot of nothing from NY for Santana....... Get rid of this putz, oh wait.... NO ONE WANTS HIM!!!!! I realy hope he is out on the wire right now, mabe someone will claim him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckyworm Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 LMAO...Gomez should probably be in triple A right now but the Twins don't have any other options. Give the guy a break, he is only 22 or 23 years old. He is one of the best defensive center fielders in baseball. As he gains more experience he will become a better hitter.I agree that we should have signed Santana, but that wasn't what happened.Gomez should be the least of our worries. If the starting pitching was near where it was last year the Twins would be right in the race for first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbymalone Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Agreed. You need not look any further than the bullpen if you want to see why the twins suck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mudcutter Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 DITTO lucky worm.--- Duensing as a SP??/ come on. Gomez has the sky for a limit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neighbor_guy Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 I will feel better about him once he learns to toss the ball in from center without the Hop, Skip, and Jump thing he does. Step --> throw, it's not hard, don't dance around like an [PoorWordUsage], just step and throw.AND STOP MAKING OUT WITH YOUR BAT!!!! I find that very distracting as well.

PierBridge Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 I'd rather have him learn in the Majors then AAA. I never did understand why or who we would replace him with while he's down in the minors. What would minors do to help him versus the Big club?He is in his own little world thats for sure...
