Availability
Alek Thomas has been traded to the Dodgers.
Fantasy Impact
Venezuelan prospect Jose Requena will head to the Diamondbacks' organization in exchange for Thomas, who was designated for assignment this past week. A solid defensive outfielder, Thomas has really struggled with the bat this season, posting a .181/.222/.340 slash line with two homers across 100 plate appearances.
The Diamondbacks designated Alek Thomas for assignment.
Fantasy Impact
Thomas was hitting just .181 to start the season at the plate. Ryan Waldschmidt had his contract selected by Arizona as the corresponding move.
Alek Thomas went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run on Saturday as the Diamondbacks dropped a 6-4 decision to the Padres.
Fantasy Impact
Thomas went deep off of Padres' starter, German Marquez, in the bottom of the second to extend Arizona's lead to 4-0. Thomas is now on a six-game hitting streak and is hitting .364 (8-for-22) during the stretch. He has his season average up to .197 (14-for-71) with two home runs, 10 runs batted in, and four stolen bases.
Alek Thomas went 1-for-2 with a double, a walk, and a stolen base on Thursday as Arizona dropped a 4-1 decision to the White Sox.
Fantasy Impact
Thomas walked and stole second in the fifth then doubled in the seventh, but was left stranded both times. The double was his eighth two-bagger of the season, tying him for fourth in the National League. Meanwhile, it was his fourth stolen base - in four attempts - this season. Thomas is well on his way to surpass his career-high of nine steals back in 2023. The outfielder is only hitting .194 on the year, but is currently on a five-game hitting streak during which he has gone 7-for-18 (.389) with four doubles, a home run, and three RBI.
Alek Thomas went 2-for-4 with a solo home run as Arizona dropped an 11-5 decision to the White Sox on Tuesday.
Fantasy Impact
Thomas took White Sox' starter, Sean Burke, deep in the fifth inning for his first home run of the season. It snapped a 30-game homerless drought dating back to September 13 of last season. Thomas is showing signs of life at the plate and is on a modest four-game hitting streak, going 6-for-16 (.375) with three doubles, a home run, and three RBI during the stretch. Thomas has raised his average 63 points over the last four games, but is still hitting just .185 with a .559 OPS on the year.
