No timetable to return Gomes (oblique) doesn't have a timetable for his return, Jessica Camerato of MLB.com reports.
Impact Gomes has been on the 10-day injured list since Saturday due to a left oblique strain, but he apparently wasn't able to participate in many activities across the last week. It appears likely that the 33-year-old will need to spend more than the minimum of 10 days on the injured list, and a better idea of his status could be revealed once he ramps up his workload.

Tallies three hits in loss Gomes went 3-for-3 with two doubles, a walk and a run scored in Tuesday's 7-4 loss to the Padres.
Impact Gomes doubled his first two times up and came around to score off the bat of Josh Harrison in the fifth. It was the second instance in which he's recorded multiple extra-base hits in a game this year. The 33-year-old backstop is slashing .266/.323/.443 with eight homers, 30 RBI, 28 runs scored and a 13:43 BB:K over 220 plate appearances. Gomes doesn't have much competition for reps at the moment after Alex Avila (calf) went on the injured list over the weekend and should be owned in most leagues given the lack of depth at his position.

Starting Monday Gomes (forearm) is starting behind the plate and batting sixth Monday at San Diego, Jesse Dougherty of The Washington Post report.
Impact The veteran catcher sat out Sunday after being hit by a pitch on the right forearm Saturday, and he'll rejoin the starting nine Monday after receiving a day off. Gomes is 8-for-22 with a homer, three doubles, four RBI and five runs in his past seven contests.

Impact The 33-year-old never exited Saturday's contest but is dealing with some swelling Sunday morning, so he'll receive the day off given the quick turnaround. It doesn't appear to be a serious issue, so Gomes should be considered day-to-day. Tres Barrera will start at catcher in his place.
