2025 Fantasy Outlook
Gomez delivered another stellar season in 2024, further cementing his status as one of the league's elite defenders. In 33 appearances and 2,711 minutes, he added one goal and 21 shots while excelling defensively with 52 tackles, 63 interceptions and 151 clearances. He played a crucial role in securing 10 clean sheets, offering both reliability and leadership at the heart of Seattle's defense alongside Jackson Ragen. His blend of physicality, tactical awareness and occasional offensive contributions has been a constant asset for the team since his arrival in 2020. Heading into 2025, Gomez will remain an integral part of Seattle's backline, continuing to deliver the consistent performances that define his game.
Makes trip, unlikely to play
Yeimar (hamstring) is expected to travel with the team for the midweek match against Austin, although his involvement remains in doubt, Michael Martinez of Cascadia FC reports.
ANALYSIS
Yeimar might be fit only for a bench role if he can see minutes in the midweek contest, having missed all MLS action since mid-March. Still, the defender's comeback is close if he avoids any setbacks, making him an alternative to Jackson Ragen and Antino Lopez at center-back, where he could rack up clearances and tackles toward the second half of the season.
