I'd yank Gomez so damn fast it wouldn't be funny. What a joke that crap was. He's quit. He's absolutely quit. Leave Schaffer in. Screw that bum.
"This is a very simple game. You throw the ball, you catch the ball, you hit the ball. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, sometimes it rains." Think about that for a while.

The idea by Gomez to bunt there wasn't totally stupid, considering how far back the 3B was playing. Remember, we did win a game on a bases loaded suicide squeeze once.

 

The problem there was that a) Gomez offered at an unbuntable pitch and b) the runner was going, so unless he's perfect or near-perfect, there's a good chance the runner can be gunned at home.

 

I kind of appreciate the cleverness, it's just that Gomez executed horribly.

With two outs though? And a force everywhere. I'd rather he swing instead of hoping he places a bunt perfectly to allow every runner to be safe.
