Cubs' Brandon Gomes: Five scoreless innings this spring
Brandon Gomes threw another scoreless inning Tuesday, his fifth consecutive scoreless appearance this spring.Gomes is a non-roster invitee on a deep team, so even a 0.00 ERA is likely not going to earn him a spot on the roster, but he's pitching well enough to stick around in the organization this year. Expect him to pitch for Triple-A Iowa this year.

Rays pitcher Brandon Gomes earns first save of season Tuesday
Tampa Bay Rays pitcher Brandon Gomes allowed one hit over a scoreless ninth inning Tuesday against the Yankees en route to his first save of the season. Brad Boxberger had pitched on back-to-back days and three of the last four days prior to Tuesday's game, so he was likely unavailable. Boxberger has been pretty bad down the stretch, posting a 4.79 ERA over the second half, so it would not be surprising if the Rays opted for a closer-by-committee approach over the final weeks of the season, meaning Gomes could be called upon again.
