Gomez is out of the lineup Saturday against the A's, the Houston Chronicle's Jake Kaplan reports.

EDGE Analysis

He tried to stretch a double into a triple and was gunned out in a crucial situation in Friday's game, which may explain why he will start Saturday's game on the bench. It's been a rough year all around for Gomez, as he has made several questionable in-game decisions and is not producing at the plate. Colby Rasmus will move over to center field with Preston Tucker stating in left field Saturday.
