Gomes (head) is not in the starting lineup Tuesday versus the Nationals.

Gomes took a backswing to the head early in Monday's series opener against Washington and was still being evaluated as of Tuesday afternoon. The good news is that he has not yet been placed on the injured list. Tucker Barnhart will catch and bat ninth Tuesday night against the Nats, and the Cubs have brought up Miguel Amaya to provide more depth behind the plate.
