Gomez no longer going

Carlos Gomez hasn't stolen a base since May 25th. He has one stolen base since May 11th. The man who once led the American League in steals is now 10th in baseball with 17. He's 11 behind MLB leader Jacoby Ellsbury.

Gomez missed some time with a wrist injury. That shouldn't impact his stealing baseball very much. Unless he's masking some kind of leg injury (it doesn't look like he is with the way he's running balls down in center field), it's time for him to get going again. He's been caught on the bases five times since May 25th, meaning he's not running all that much.
