Well, what did we learn this week?
We learned that Jake Westbrook -- when he's right -- is fantastic.
We learned that Joe Borowski owns stock in Rolaids.
We learned that our offense still exists, even if it's extremely shy.
We learned that Franklin Gutierrez is our every day right fielder (or should be).
And what SHOULD we have learned?
That Chris Gomez needs to get some starts at third.
Assuming we keep Cabrera at second, our infield batting AVG would be this:
Gomez: .303 (.333 with the Tribe)
Peralta: .274
Cabrera: .290
Garko: .307
That's pretty freaking good, and a VAST improvent over what we had. Or, if we're looking for defense, play Cabrera at short stop every once in a while and either move Gomez to second and plug in Casey or plug in Barfield.
Gomez has been great for us so far. I don't understand why we're not taking advantage of him more.
