I think that the a's should pursue Jonny Gomes, as the title states, for a number of reasons

1. He's Good Good power, Great patience at the plate, decent fielder,
   
2. He's cheap. The D-Rays have a number of OF's they want to bring up. Delmon Young, Elijah Dukes, etc. Right now, he seems a little out of their plans. Maybe a decent package of prospects will net him
   
3. He's from the Bay Area
   
4. He seems like a decent guy for our clubhouse
