Gomes went 1-for-3 with a walk, a grand slam and five total RBI in Saturday's win over the Brewers.

EDGE Analysis

Gomes reached the 10-homer plateau in style, as he blasted a grand slam in the first inning to get the Cubs going. The veteran catcher has been a pleasant surprise this season, as his 63 RBI are his most since tallying a career-best 74 RBI back in 2014. It remains to be seen what the 36-year-old's role will be in 2024, though he appears to still have a little left in the tank based on this year's performance.

Gomes is not in the lineup for Friday's game against the Rockies.

EDGE Analysis

Gomes will get a breather for Friday's day game after catching each of the previous three contests. Miguel Amaya will be behind the plate for Jameson Taillon.

Gomes went 2-for-6 with a double and three runs scored in Saturday's extra-innings loss to the Diamondbacks.

EDGE Analysis

The Cubs and Diamondbacks ended up playing 13 innings, with Gomes behind the plate for all of them. He also contributed offensively as his strong campaign continued. The veteran is now batting .272 with a .725 OPS. Both figures would be his highest since the shortened 2020 season. In terms of full seasons, you have to go back to 2018 to find a better OPS and 2014 to find a better average for Gomes, who should continue to see heavy work as Chicago looks to clinch a playoff spot.

Gomes is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game in Colorado, Meghan Montemurro of the Chicago Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

It's a day game after Gomes had caught each of the last four contests, so it's no surprise he's getting a breather. Miguel Amaya is behind the dish Wednesday.

Gomes went 3-for-4 with three RBI in a 5-4 win against the Rockies on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

All three of Gomes' hits were singles, but he was plenty productive. The backstop singled home a run in the sixth inning, then recorded a two-run knock in the ninth that turned a one-run Cubs deficit into a one-run lead. Gomes has three multi-hit efforts through 10 contests in September and is slashing .323/.344/.387 with six RBI so far this month.

Gomes is not in the Cubs' lineup Wednesday against the Giants.

EDGE Analysis

Since his last game on the bench, Gomes is 6-for-16 with three RBI in five games. Wednesday is an expected rest day for the catcher with Miguel Amaya starting behind the plate.

Gomes went 3-for-4 with a double, a run scored and two RBI in Tuesday's 11-8 win over the Giants.

EDGE Analysis

After Miguel Amaya picked up a start Sunday, Gomes has returned to go 5-for-7 across the first two games of an important series with San Francisco. The veteran catcher isn't an elite offensive option but he's been solid with a .275 average and .741 OPS across 97 games. Gomes should continue to start most days down the stretch with Amaya available to spell him.

Gomes went 2-for-3 with a double and a RBI in Monday's 5-0 win over the Giants.

EDGE Analysis

Gomes returned to the lineup after getting a breather Sunday, and the veteran didn't skip a beat. He's been solid this year with a .269 batting average and .729 OPS, which are up significantly from the .235 average and .625 OPS he posted last season. Miguel Amaya should continue to spell Gomes some down the stretch, but with the Cubs fighting for a playoff spot, they'll probably use Gomes as much as possible given his production to this point.
