| Player Notes |
| December 22, 2006 The Devil Rays have asked Jonny Gomes to start doing work at first base, something Gomes is open-minded to do, the St. Petersburg Times reports. Gomes said he has been hitting regularly, recently starting throwing with no pain and expects to be 100 percent by the start of the exhibition season; he had shoulder surgery three months ago. |
| September 5, 2006 Jonny Gomes underwent surgery on his injured left shoulder on Tuesday, according to the AP. He is expected to be ready for spring training next year. |
| September 5, 2006 Jonny Gomes is expected to undergo arthroscopic surgery on his right shoulder today, according to the Tampa Tribune. He will miss the rest of the season. |
| August 28, 2006 The Devil Rays placed Jonny Gomes on the 15-day DL Monday with a shoulder injury, according to the AP. He's expected to have season-ending surgery on the shoulder next week. |
| August 26, 2006 The St. Petersburg Times reports that Jonny Gomes will have his ailing right shoulder examined Monday and seems resigned to undergoing season-ending surgery. "I gave it a run," Gomes said. "I tried. I tried to battle through it. I've never missed games because of injury. I want to be in there. But it's just catching up to me, and in a team sport, I'm hurting the team." |
| August 23, 2006 Jonny Gomes, who has been limited to DH most of the season because of a right shoulder injury, might undergo season-ending surgery, according to the AP. The Devil Rays and Gomes are currently looking at that possibility. "We'll know more about that in the next couple days," manager Joe Maddon said. |
| August 8, 2006 Jonny Gomes got a routine day off on Tuesday, according to the AP. He is just 5-for-73 since the All-Star break. |
| July 25, 2006 Manager Joe Maddon stated on Tuesday that he has no intentions of benching the struggling Jonny Gomes, according to the AP. "He has to fight through it," Maddon said. Gomes is currently in the middle of a 3-for-49 slide. |
| July 22, 2006 The Devil Rays bumped the struggling Jonny Gomes down to eighth in the batting order on Friday night. It didn't help, as Gomes was 0-for-4. |
| July 20, 2006 Jonny Gomes has batted second the last two days after spending the last week primarily in the No. 6 spot. The Devil Rays are obviously trying to come up with a way to jumpstart his bat. In his past 15 games, he's hitting a dismal .159. It's unclear how long the team intends to stick with this lineup. |
| July 4, 2006 An MRI on Jonny Gomes revealed that the Tampa DH has a strained ligament in his rotator cuff, according to the St. Petersburg Times. Gomes did not rule out surgery but said it would be in the offseason. He's worried about being typecast as a DH and plans to begin taking grounders at first base, though he wouldn't actually play there until next season. |
| June 25, 2006 Because of a bad shoulder that gives him problems when throwing, Jonny Gomes will be limited to pinch-hitting duties again during interleague road games this week at Florida and Washington, according to the AP. Gomes didn't make a start in an interleague series at Phildelphia last weekend. |
| June 21, 2006 Jonny Gomes might have an MRI taken of his sore right shoulder, according to the St. Petersburg Times. He thinks he may have injured it during spring training. "I didn't really have a good throwing program set up," he said. "I concentrated more on working out lifting weights and hitting." |
| June 12, 2006 Manager Joe Maddon said that Jonny Gomes probably won't start in the interleague series this weekend at Philadelphia because the DH rule won't be in effect, according to the AP. Gomes has mostly been starting in the DH spot because of a sore shoulder. "He'd be like a pitcher on a pitch count," Maddon said. |
| May 28, 2006 Jonny Gomes was held of yesterday's game because he is 0-for-15 with 11 strikeouts against starter Curt Schilling over his career, according to the St. Petersburg Times. It was the first game Gomes missed all season. |
| May 14, 2006 For the first time since April 28, Jonny Gomes was able to play in right field on Saturday, according to the St. Petersburg Times. He said his sore throwing shoulder has improved to the point that he can play there on a somewhat-regular basis. "I don't want (Gomes) out there every day, but three or four times a week that will really help us," manager Joe Maddon said. |
| May 1, 2006 Jonny Gomes said yesterday the tightness in his right shoulder will limit him to DH duties for the foreseeable future, according to the St. Petersburg Times. The joint certainly doesn't appear to be bothering his swing, as he hit 11 homers in April. |
| April 28, 2006 The Tampa Tribune reports that Jonny Gomes should return to playing the field soon. He has been limited to DH duties due to a sore throwing shoulder. |
