He can run his fastball into the mid to higher 90s and clearly has important bat-missing potential, although he has nonetheless but to dial in his command constantly. Gose is out of choices, so different groups handed on taking a flier. That’s to Cleveland’s profit, as he’ll head again to Triple-A and stay readily available in case the Guards want further lefty bullpen depth down the stretch. Gose will once more have the flexibility to turn into a minor league free agent subsequent offseason if Cleveland doesn’t name him again up earlier than then.
