BP Chats

Date	Question	Answer
2011-05-23 13:00:00	Is Jonny Gomes toast? Is Russell Branyon? (PadresOnTop from san diego)	It's 157 plate appearances (for Gomes), 7 of which have ended in home runs. I think it's way too early to use the .171 batting average as a sign he's done. His strikeout rate is up a little bit, but not way up from his career rate. With Branyan you have to worry about his career-long struggles to have a healthy back. As such, his lack of power this year concerns me. But I haven't been following him closely enough this year to emphatically tell a GM (like the Rays, for instance) that he isn't worth a look. (Mike Fast)
2011-05-05 13:00:00	Hi Steve What kind of playing time and production do you anticipate for Fred Lewis going forward? Thanks (Ed from Cranford, NJ)	With Jonny Gomes a-slumpin' and Dusty Baker apparently uninterested in giving Chris Heisey any more playing time, perhaps he can work himself into the left field picture with some hot hitting. I'm afraid that if he doesn't hit right away, he'll be just one more guy in a big outfield mix. I have some openings in my queue for some new questions and questioners, as things are unusually quiet for a Steve chat. I hope you haven't lost that lovin' feeling. For me, I mean. If you're about to dump your significant other, I guess that's okay. But I feel for you. I really do. (Steven Goldman)
2011-04-25 13:00:00	Is Jonny Gomes worth keeping? Will he keep up the production with this huge walk rate? Or would Jason Bay be a better pick up? (Reginald from NY)	I wrote about Gomes last Friday, and I don't think we can expect him to remain a productive fantasy player. Given the way his ownership rates have skyrocketed, though, you may want to see what you can get for him in a trade. (Marc Normandin)
2011-04-12 13:00:00	Jonny Gomes is hitting .231/.432/.615 despite a .176 BABIP and second only to Youkilis in walks in MLB. He's only swinging at 29% of the pitches he sees (compared to a career 47%). Sure, the sample size is tiny and his results are not predictive. But at what point can you use the stats as reasonable jumping off point for a more qualitative assessment? It's tough to completely ignore something seemingly so drastic! (Rick from Chicago)	Gomes is weird. Last year he suddenly started racking up infield hits, and this year he's turned into the [insert ethnicity here] God of Walks. I wouldn't expect his newfound patience to prove any more enduring than his Ichiro act from 2010. That said, swing rate stabilizes early, around 50 PA. Walk rate takes a little longer (200 PA). There's a large body of evidence to suggest that Gomes isn't this kind of hitter, and free swingers don't generally become big walkers all at once (or at all, really). (Ben Lindbergh)
2010-10-25 13:00:00	Loving the BP Universe this postseason CK. Y'all are doing a great job, and following each game on Twitter has been a blast. What do we do in cincy to cement the gains we've made and repeat in the postseason? (Scartore from The Queen City)	The more I think about it, the more I think dealing from depth to get Greinke would be one worthwhile move. The other, non-mutually-dependent move is getting in on one of the real boppers in the outfield--thank you, Jonny Gomes, here's a fruit basket, but we need more. If that's going nuts for Carl Crawford, that works for me, pace Jayson Werth. Even a one-plus-option deal for His Mannyness would be interesting--if Dusty's handled Barry Bonds, he ought to be up for that particular challenge as well. (Christina Kahrl)
2009-02-11 14:00:00	What kind of numbers could a Chris Dickerson/Jonny Gomes platoon put up? (Brandon from Charleston)	Not good. (John Perrotto)
2008-06-27 14:00:00	Thoughts on Chris Davis from Texas? I have some horrendous offensive players (Jonny Gomes, better at punching than hitting, leaps to mind) and want to know if I should aggressively go after Davis. I think so. Thoughts? (Jeff from Boston)	Yes. Now. Don't talk to me, just go. (Christina Kahrl)
2008-03-31 13:00:00	Matt Murton or Jonny Gomes, if given the choice...who would you rather have? (jlarsen from DRays Bay, FL)	Sounds like a perfect platoon to me. Actually, I remarked in today's Pinstriped Bible that the Indians could usefully liberate Murton and Sean Marshall from the Cubs, given that their outfield corner production looks a bit weak and the back of their rotation is nothing special.

Date	Roundtable Name	Comment
2010-10-06 10:00:00	2010 Playoffs Day One	FYI, Scott Rolen, Jonny Gomes, Jay Bruce combined 3-for-19 against Roy during the regular season. (Jesse Behr)
2010-10-06 10:00:00	2010 Playoffs Day One	Hitting the ball at Jonny Gomes usually involves happy outcomes, but there wasn't much anybody could have done with that one. (Christina Kahrl)
2009-10-16 13:00:00	NLCS Game Two/ALCS Game One	I got asked the steel cage question earlier this season and it was decided that Jonny Gomes would be the winner. His pro wrestling experience made up for any size disadvantage. (Will Carroll)
