Rays vs Diamondbacks thread

[BC867]

Playing like gritty winners tonight. Love the timely hitting.

However, the downgrade from Bob to Gonzo is unimaginable. Its excruciating. I feel bad for Steve, he will say something, set up Gonzo to give a response... silence... Gonzo will go multiple batters without saying a word. He makes Matt "In a nutshell" Williams color commentary seem exciting.

I think we need to cut Gonzo some slack. With his dual job titles of "Special Assistant to the President & CEO" and backup TV color commentator, Luis has to be very careful when he reacts to Steve's leading questions on the air.

It seems that a lot of play-by-play announcers clue in their color guy between innings as to what they'll be asking, but Steve doesn't seem to be one of them.

Bob Brenly has one job -- to react by representing his opinions. Gonzo is representing the Front Office.

I would hope that Gonzo points that out to Steve. Especially with all of the negatives that have befallen the D'backs recently.
