Carlos Gomez receiving a day off Wednesday in Tampa Bay

Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Carlos Gomez is not in the lineup Wednesday against the Detroit Tigers.

What It Means:

Gomez has been a strong fantasy asset over his last four games, averaging 14.1 FanDuel points per game over that stretch. He has earned a day off Wednesday with Mallex Smith taking over in right field. Smith is batting ninth against right-hander Jordan Zimmerman.

Our models project Gomez for a .234 batting average with 6 home runs, 23 runs scored, 22 RBI, and 6 steals over 206 plate appearances remaining this season.
