Gomes (oblique) took swings in the batting cage Friday, Jesse Dougherty of The Washington Post reports.

Gomes took about 40 swings during his hitting session Friday, and he felt good afterward. He should continue to get work in the cage for a few more days, and the Nationals hope to get the 34-year-old back on the field shortly after. It's not yet clear when Gomes will be able to return to game action, but he's expected to require a rehab assignment before he's cleared to rejoin the big-league roster.
