Date	Question	Answer
2014-12-18 15:00:00 (link to chat)	If you were the Cubs, would you sign Jonny Gomes? How do you quantify 'clubhouse leadership'? He's a bad player for a team riddled with outfield question marks. (LGBT from Evanston, Il)	I'd definitely be open to it, but it depends a bit on the terms, of course. I don't know that you "quantify" clubhouse leadership because it can manifest itself in multiple ways, and we don't really know if there's a point of diminishing returns in terms of having "clubhouse guys." Or even if having a different mix of "clubhouse guys" is important (I'd assume it is, but that it can depend heavily on the group of players in question). I don't have an issue with trying to quantify it (trying is important!) but I'm not sure we're ever going to settle on a number, nor that we should. He's depth on a team riddled with outfield question marks, which hardly strikes me as a bad thing. He can mash left-handed pitching. Having those guys around isn't a bad thing, and they're usually trade-able. Also his name is Jonathan Johnson Gomes. (Craig Goldstein)
2013-10-30 12:00:00 (link to chat)	Is this World Series "fixed"? Not going all conspiracy theorist, but Walk-off via obstruction, walk-off on pick-off that noone saw on FOX(they were panning to a cute Cardinal fan), Ortiz being nearly unstoppable, Jonny Gomes delivering knockout blow in game he only started due to late-scratch, Wacha-Martinez-Rosenthal showing off Cardinals' insane scouting, "in the neighborhood" calls, defensive misplays abound, "clutch"-ness and how noone on FOX seems to know the situation's statistical definition & #shutdowninning ....seems like a national writers dream with all these narratives at their disposal (jlarsen from Chicago)	It's been a crazy and exciting World Series, for sure. A lot to write about and the guys here at BP have been, if I may say so, crushing it. (Matthew Kory)
2013-03-20 11:00:00 (link to chat)	Hi Cory, What type of year do you think Jonny Gomes will have ? (Brian from Boston)	He'll hit for power, strike out a lot, make a lot of friends and some enemies, and be exposed as an everyday player. The better Jackie Bradley does, the better it will be for Gomes. (Cory Schwartz)
2012-11-29 13:00:00 (link to chat)	Toronto claims that Maicer Izturis is their starting secondbaseman. Boston has Jonny Gomes and David Nava penciled in their starting outfield. Is there a trend now from sabermetric oriented teams away from young high ceiling players to overachievers? (John Carter of Hootstown from Toronto by way of Connecticut)	Outstanding question, John Carter of Hootstown! I will focus on Izturis, who I really like because of his intangibles. Has a knack for doing a lot of little things right on a daily basis, extremely good instincts, and he is a terrific hitter in clutch situations with quality at bats. Great selection by the Jays in my opinion, as he is a winning player. Makeup so important, and he, Gomes, and Nava are those types. Their contribution to a club is big picture. Scouting always adds dimensions that cannot be achieved strictly by stats, and that's why smart organizations rely on both to minimize risk and maximize their return. (Dan Evans)
2012-11-13 13:00:00 (link to chat)	Could you set us straight, please, about some slow right-handed sluggers: 1) Why are the Orioles pursuing Jonny Gomes, unless Nolan Reimold is not expected to fully recover? 2) Why would anyone want a 27 year old .700 OPS (last two seasons) player known for his miscues - Delmon Young, unless they are duped into thinking he's still going to be good based on a good week in the ALCS? (John Carter from Toronto)	Good afternoon, John Carter. The Orioles-Gomes connection surfaced yesterday, and I touched on it in today's Rumor Roundup. A designated hitter platoon certainly isn't ideal, but Gomes has a track record of mashing left-handed pitching, so there's room for him to share that job with, say, Chris Davis, even if Reimold and Nick Markakis are healthy and playing full-time in the outfield corners. As for Delmon, I think most teams will be smart enough to seek other options, so a rough landing might be in store. (Daniel Rathman)
2012-10-01 13:00:00 (link to chat)	I'm within 1 of multiple people in the HR and Win categories in a league. No one can catch me in the "conflicting" categories, like AVG or Hitter's strikeouts or Losses (which we have). Could you name 1 hitter and 1 pitcher you think most likely to hit a homer or win a game? (SimplyFalco from Amherst)	Jonny Gomes is widely available, and if you have daily transactions, you'll get him against Martin Perez tonight. Wei-Yin Chen has pitched well against the Rays, is widely available, and pitches tonight, so he's a guy I'd gamble on. (Josh Shepardson)
2011-05-23 13:00:00 (link to chat)	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 (link to chat)	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 (link to chat)	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 (link to chat)	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 (link to chat)	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 (link to chat)	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 (link to chat)	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 (link to chat)	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. (Steven Goldman)

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)
