As a former catcher for my whole baseball career I always have liked catchers. And Yan Gomes is by far my favorite player. Moments ago there was a play at the plate vs. Detroit where he was acting as a 1st baseman and the runner slid into his leg and he possibly tore something very badly. The slide is the thing that pisses me off. Many people, especially tiger fans, will excuse it but it was completely unnecessary. If you watch he bends his leg into Gomes... as a former player and a catcher everyone knows that's a cheap play that's uncalled for. Not only that, but it's obvious he does it on purpose considering he shows no sportsmanship and applauds Gomes when he gets up or even comes up to him when he's up to apologize. It's trash and there's no need for it.
