INJURIES

Goes deep again Gomes went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run in Saturday's Cactus League game against the Angels.
Impact Gomes continued his strong spring, as he now has a 1.020 OPS and four home runs across 37 at-bats. The veteran catcher figures to split starts with Tucker Barnhart, but with Gomes looking much better offensively in Cactus League play, he could see a slightly larger share of the playing time.
MARCH 26, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Having solid spring Gomes is batting .286 in Cactus League action with three home runs across 12 games.
Impact Gomes is having a productive spring, while fellow catcher Tucker Barnhart has gone just 2-for-21 to date. The veteran backstops figure to split catching duties this season with Willson Contreras now in St. Louis, though Gomes may be pulling ahead slightly with his superior performance at the plate. He won't be the most exciting fantasy option, but Gomes has had his moments in the past when he's seen consistent playing time, including hitting 14 home runs as recently as 2021.
MARCH 21, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Could be top catching option Gomes could be in line for a larger role in 2023 with Willson Contreras moving on to St. Louis in the offseason, Patrick Mooney and Sahadev Sharma of The Athletic report.
Impact Contreras is out and Tucker Barnhart is in, with Gomes returning to the roster. That gives the Cubs two defensive-minded, veteran catchers who may end up splitting time. That's a different arrangement than past seasons, when Contreras was clearly the top option behind the plate. It could mean more playing time for Gomes, who appeared in 86 games for Chicago last year with an OPS of .625 over 293 plate appearances.

Cubs finalize 2-year deal with catcher Tucker Barnhart

The Chicago Cubs have finalized a $6.5 million, two-year contract with Gold Glove-winning catcher Tucker Barnhart
DECEMBER 29, 2022 • Associated Press
Moves into No. 2 role Gomes will start at catcher and bat eighth in Monday's game in Cincinnati.
Impact Though he's in the lineup Monday, Gomes has moved back to the No. 2 role at catcher after Willson Contreras returned from the injured list last week. Contreras is just getting a breather, so Gomes will pick up a start in his stead.

Stroman, Gomes power Cubs past struggling Phillies 2-1

Marcus Stroman pitched seven innings of four-hit ball, and Yan Gomes hit a tiebreaking double in the seventh inning, lifting the Chicago Cubs to a 2-1 victory over the Philadelphia...
SEPTEMBER 28, 2022 • Associated Press
On bench Sunday Gomes is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Pirates.
Impact Gomes is hitless with six strikeouts in his past 16 at-bats and will take a seat Sunday for the second time in the past three games. P.J. Higgins will start behind the plate and bat seventh in the series finale at Pittsburgh.
SEPTEMBER 25, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Sitting Friday Gomes is not in the starting lineup for Friday's contest versus the Pirates.
Impact Gomes will get a day off after he went 3-for-16 with a homer and three RBI while starting the last four games. P.J. Higgins will draw the start at catcher and bat seventh against Pittsburgh.
SEPTEMBER 23, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Powers offense in loss Gomes went 3-for-4 with a home run and three total RBI in Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Rockies.
Impact Gomes accounted for half of the Cubs' six hits. Two of those gave them their only scoring plays in the game -- a two-run single in the third inning and a solo shot in the sixth, both off Rockies starter Ryan Feltner. Gomes continues to see most of the starts at catcher with Willson Contreras (ankle) out, with P.J. Higgins holding down a backup role. This was Gomes' third multi-hit effort in September, a month in which he's hit .378 (14-for-37) with two long balls and eight RBI. He's up to a .242/.270/.375 slash line with eight homers, 28 RBI, 22 runs scored and two stolen bases through 78 contests overall.
SEPTEMBER 18, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
On bench Saturday Gomes isn't starting Saturday against Colorado.
Impact Gomes is getting a day off after he went 2-for-11 with a double, three RBI, a run and a stolen base over the last three games. P.J. Higgins will start behind the plate and bat fifth.

Gomes' RBI single in 7th lifts Cubs over Nationals 3-2

Yan Gomes hit a tie-breaking single in the seventh inning and the Chicago Cubs beat the Washington Nationals 3-2 to win the three-game series
AUGUST 17, 2022 • Associated Press
Starting Sunday's contest Gomes is starting at catcher and batting eighth in Sunday's game against the Reds.
Impact Willson Contreras gets a breather in the series finale, while Franmil Reyes will serve as the DH. The addition of Reyes has cut into Gomes' playing time, as the former is seeing most of his playing time at DH, and Gomes typically either catches or serves as the DH when he's in the lineup. At this point, the veteran simply looks like a backup to Contreras, which limits his fantasy appeal.

Hoerner, Cubs top power-hitting rookie Meneses, Nationals

Nico Hoerner homered to ignite a four-run rally in the seventh inning that sent the Chicago Cubs over power-hitting rookie Joey Meneses and the Washington Nationals 4-2
AUGUST 10, 2022 • Associated Press
Remains on bench for nightcap Gomes isn't starting the second game of Thursday's doubleheader against the Cardinals.
Impact Gomes didn't take the field during the first game of Thursday's twin bill, and he'll remain on the bench for the nightcap. P.J. Higgins is starting behind the plate while Willson Contreras serves as the designated hitter.
AUGUST 4, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
On bench for Game 1 of twin bill Gomes is out of the lineup for the first game of Thursday's doubleheader with the Cardinals.
Impact Gomes is absent from the lineup for the front end of the twin bill, but expect him to check in behind the dish for Game 2 while top backstop Willson Contreras either heads to the bench or serves as the Cubs' designated hitter.
AUGUST 4, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Not starting Wednesday Gomes is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Cardinals.
Impact Willson Contreras is behind the plate Wednesday and Rafael Ortega is getting a turn as the Cubs' designated hitter, closing off both of Gomes' avenues to starting roles. Though the Cubs' decision not to deal Contreras ahead of Tuesday's trade deadline is a negative development for Gomes' playing-time outlook, Gomes should still be in line for at least a handful of starts per week.
AUGUST 3, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Sitting out series finale Gomes is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Giants.
Impact Gomes had caught three of the Cubs' last four games, but he'll take a seat in the series finale while Willson Contreras checks in behind the plate after having previously seen more opportunities at designated hitter coming out of the All-Star break. Contreras is a prime candidate to get moved ahead of Tuesday's trade deadline, so Gomes could soon have the No. 1 catcher's role all to himself.
JULY 31, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Not in Monday's lineup Gomes isn't starting Monday's game against the Pirates.
Impact Gomes homered twice during Sunday's win over the Phillies, but he'll get a breather as the Cubs return home Monday. Willson Contreras is starting behind the dish while Frank Schwindel serves as the designated hitter.
JULY 25, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Homers twice in series finale Gomes went 2-for-4 with two solo home runs in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Phillies.
Impact Gomes put the Cubs on the board with his solo blast in the top of the third inning, and he extended the team's lead with another solo homer in the next frame. The 35-year-old didn't appear in any of the last three games since Willson Contreras has been used more as a catcher than as a designated hitter recently. However, Gomes will likely be in line for significantly more playing time if Contreras is ultimately dealt prior to the trade deadline in early August.

Gomes, Smyly help lift Cubs to three-game sweep of Phillies

Yan Gomes hit two home runs, Drew Smyly tossed six sharp innings and the Chicago Cubs completed a three-game sweep with a 4-3 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies
JULY 24, 2022 • Associated Press
Starting Sunday Gomes is starting at catcher and batting seventh in Sunday's game against the Phillies.
Impact Gomes sat out the last three games but will enter the lineup with Willson Contreras getting a breather in the series finale. Gomes might get a little more fantasy value if Contreras is traded, though the former's .542 OPS doesn't inspire a ton of confidence even if he's seeing more playing time.
JULY 24, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Remains out of lineup Gomes isn't in the lineup Saturday against the Phillies.
Impact Gomes is out of the lineup for a third consecutive game since Willson Contreras is starting behind the dish once again Saturday. With Contreras at catcher, Patrick Wisdom is serving as the designated hitter while David Bote enters the lineup at third base.
