In praise of Tuffy Gosewisch

Let’s be honest, the removal of Edwin Escobar, Gabriel Guerrero, Dominic Leone and Tyler Wagner from the 40-man roster are not going to cause much of a ripple in the pool of Diamondbacks fandom. Their performances at the major-league ranged from non-existent through brief to awful [Leone leaves the team with the second-highest ERA in franchise history, for any pitcher with more than 30 innings]. The only player whose loss has received any kind of reaction at all is Tuffy Gosewisch.

Which is odd, because on a strict performance level, he’s little or no better than the others.
