  • Cubs' Yan Gomes: Having solid spring

    Gomes is batting .286 in Cactus League action with three home runs across 12 games. 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.

  • Cubs' Yan Gomes: 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. 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' Yan Gomes: Moves into No. 2 role

    Gomes will start at catcher and bat eighth in Monday's game in Cincinnati. 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.

  • Cubs' Yan Gomes: 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. 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.

  • Cubs' Yan Gomes: Collects four hits Wednesday

    Gomes went 4-for-4 in Wednesday's 7-1 loss to the Reds. All four of the hits were singles, and Gomes was unable to drive anyone in or come around to score. The veteran started Wednesday with Willson Contreras (ankle) landing on the injured list Tuesday. Gomes should continue to start while Contreras is out with P.J. Higgins able to serve in a reserve role, though Higgins started at first base Wednesday.

  • Cubs' Yan Gomes: Resting Sunday

    Gomes is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cardinals. Though Willson Contreras (ankle) isn't yet ready to rejoin the lineup, Gomes will take a seat for the day game after a night game after he was behind the plate for each of the previous three contests. No. 3 backstop P.J. Higgins will step in at catcher for the series finale.

  • Cubs' Yan Gomes: Nabs rare steal

    Gomes went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in Friday's 8-0 loss to the Cardinals. Gomes isn't known for speed -- this was just the sixth steal of his major-league career, which spans 11 seasons. It was his first theft since 2020. Even if he wanted to run more, he hasn't afforded himself many opportunities. His .247 on-base percentage is his lowest since 2016, and he's batting just .219 with six home runs, 20 RBI and 19 runs scored through 227 plate appearances. Gomes should continue to fill in as the Cubs' top catcher while Willson Contreras deals with a lingering ankle injury.

  • Cubs' Yan Gomes: Produces despite going hitless

    Gomes went 0-for-3 with two RBI and two runs scored in Wednesday's 7-1 win over the Cardinals. Despite failing to record a hit, Gomes contributed with four combined runs and RBI Wednesday. The backup catcher now has 37 combined runs and RBI in 64 games played this season. With Willson Contreras still playing almost every day, Gomes only holds value in deep two-catcher leagues where counting stats are most valued.

  • Cubs' Yan Gomes: Starting Sunday's contest

    Gomes is starting at catcher and batting eighth in Sunday's game against the Reds. 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.

  • Cubs' Yan Gomes: Remains on bench for nightcap

    Gomes isn't starting the second game of Thursday's doubleheader against the Cardinals. 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.

  • Cubs' Yan Gomes: 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.

  • Cubs' Yan Gomes: Not starting Wednesday

    Gomes is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Cardinals. 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.

  • Cubs' Yan Gomes: Sitting out series finale

    Gomes is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Giants. 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.

  • Cubs' Yan Gomes: Not in Monday's lineup

    Gomes isn't starting Monday's game against the Pirates. 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.
