Gorman seems to suck at 3b

Re: Gorman seems to suck at 3b
Gorman has some physical tools but I question whether he has it between the ears?
He’s on the clock.
Wetherholt is looming in 2026 and we have Donovan.

Re: Gorman seems to suck at 3b
I’m not trying to defend Gorman BUT we have watched a premier defensive 3B the last several years. We tend to think that every player can make the plays that we have seen made at the hot corner. I remember when Ozzie retired. It was hard watching other SS not make plays that we had seen made for years.

New clown?
McGreevy showed a lot of poised tonight. Got down early, but settled in a COMPETED and gave his tram.a chance to win. That's EXACTLY what I want my pitcher to do.

No, Mo wants to trade him to SHED PAYROLL. That's it.Ozziesfan41 wrote: ↑02 Aug 2025 22:26 pmlol it’s funny if you really believe he’s an asset to the team Even idiot mo knows he’s not that’s why he’s been desperate to trade himCarp4Cy wrote: ↑02 Aug 2025 22:25 pmHe doesn't drag the team down. That's just a false narrative that posters tell themselves. He simply doesn't do enough to push the team forward. But neither does anyone else.

its the wrong motivation and the wrong outcome. Also Nado doesn't suck at defense.

Re: Gorman seems to suck at 3b
I guess everyone forgets he hasn't played over there in years.

I wish Gorman would be able to settle in at 3b and be a productive moto bat. But I just don't see that happening.

Re: Gorman seems to suck at 3b
Why did I even try to get people to think before they post negative comments?

Let the young guys play and see what happens.
Re: Gorman seems to suck at 3b
Of course he does.

Opti-This forum is uncensored for baseball content. People can say whatever they want. Language is automatically censored. They will shut down threads that go off topic. You seem genuine. But when you click on a thread titled "Gorman sucks", you have to know it's going to be negative. I understand your point, and personally I avoid those discussions and aggressive posters. You should try avoiding them as well if it bothers you. You aren't going to change it.opti mist wrote: ↑03 Aug 2025 05:55 am Why did I even try to get people to think before they post negative comments?

Re: Gorman seems to suck at 3b
Nado drags the team down in that they work on a limited payroll and arenado takes up a huge chunk to be a net negatove player. And we cant sign another 3b because we are stuck with nados contract that we cant just drop on a dime.Carp4Cy wrote: ↑02 Aug 2025 22:25 pmHe doesn't drag the team down.

And no. Get rid of him while you can replace later. If we got rid ofnhim 2 years ago(granted he had ntc) we would have not only be rid of the contravt but got something in return.
Now no one will take his contract.
And thisbis supposed to be a give youngsters runway season. Nado isnt the future and just blocos playing and evaluation time. Donovan can play 3b. Wetherholts is about to come up and play 2b pushing donny anyway.
Saggese could to be given a chance to see if he can develop if we didnt have nado hogging time.
I cant for the life of me understand people trying to justify bad contracts as not a hinderance. If the youngsters suck, oh well, they can bring someone in to replace them more easily. Nado just blocks people because they feel they have to try to play him based on contract. If his name wasnt nolan arenado and he wasnt be paid that contract, hed be released to gove younger players a chance even if they did slighrly.worse. cuz he isnt the future

Re: Gorman seems to suck at 3b
Let Gorman play the rest of the season there and let's see.
He's not going to be Arenado or Oberkfell for that matter but a number of games is needed to get a more valid evaluation.
Frankly his fielding is going to come second to what he can do offensively.
If he doesn't hit it won't matter.
