Colby Thomas Called Up From Triple-A
Colby Thomas from Triple-A Las Vegas. Thomas, the team's No. 2 prospect per MLB Pipeline, gets the call to the big leagues for the first time after hitting .297 (92-for-310) with 17 home runs, 21 doubles, two triples, 70 RBI, 63 runs scored and seven stolen bases in 76 games for the Aviators this year. The 24-year-old former third-rounder in 2022 out of Mercer University has raw power that could play immediately for those searching for outfield depth in deep-mixed and AL-only leagues, although he might be in more of a platoon role in his first taste of the big leagues. Over a full season, Thomas certainly has 20-plus-homer upside while also giving fantasy managers the potential four double-digit stolen bases. He's also capable of playing anywhere in the outfield, giving him a better avenue for regular playing time.
