Part of the reason Gomes gave the speech is because he wasn't really part of the team. He is a respected veteran who was bragging on our team. Players around the league understand that he wasn't patting himself on the back for winning the World Series. He was just one of them who happened to be a temp for the organization that won. Hosmer couldn't have gotten away with that. Even Gordon couldn't have.

Gomes basically gave a best man's speech. That was his role...brag on the groom.

Absolutely this. He knew exactly what his role was and pulled it off with perfection.

Hosmer's ball was definitely misplayed by the A's outfield defense. No, it couldn't have been caught, but either Gomes or the Center Fielder should have been prepared to play it off the wall.

I have no complaints. I doubt Josh does either, it sounds like they bonded with the A's.

Gomes is the ultimate clubhouse guy.

Was just reminded that Pablo Sandoval received a 5 year, $95 million contract last offseason. LMAO

Well one thing we know for sure is Gordon would never go that route. He might decline but it won't be from flaking off.

When do these things usually come to a head? We've got a while still right?

Watching MLB Network last night on the AL MVP award, they had all three finalists on screen at the same time. Harold Reynolds noted to Cain that he was the only one in the top 10 to make the World Series. Cain smiled, and you should've seen Donaldson's reaction. He kinda of dropped and shook his head like, "Man, are you kidding me?" Wish that video could be embedded, it was priceless.

So, Donaldson was more valuable to Toronto than Cain was to KC?

Thanks! I couldn't find a way to embed that.

Maybin had a bad second half, after pitchers adjusted to his new approach.

Will help them defensively, I guess (though I'm not sure what this means for Gose, who is a quality CF... maybe Maybin plays RF, and they shift Martinez to LF?).
