Analysis:
It appears manager Terry Francona is just getting Gomes, who has caught the last seven games for Cleveland, a breather. Roberto Perez will assume duties behind the plate. Gomes went 0-for-6 with a pair of strikeouts Thursday, but he had recorded multiple hits in three of his previous four outings.
