Colby Thomas Recalled from Triple-A Las Vegas
Athletics outfielder Colby Thomas was recalled from Triple-A Las Vegas on Wednesday, with Denzel Clarke (foot) heading to the injured list. The former third-round draft pick has been hitting well for the Aviators, slashing .309/.397/.574 with five home runs through 17 games. The right-handed slugger has also shown modest year-over-year improvements in strikeout (24.4 percent) and walk rate (10.3 percent) in the early going, both of which he struggled with in his first go-round in the majors last season (37.1 percent K%, 5.3 percent BB%). The 25-year-old has big power, hitting 31 home runs in 2024 and another 24 in 2025 between Triple-A and with the Athletics. Thomas is worth a look for his home run potential in deeper leagues, although he'll need to get regular at-bats to make it worthwhile, so keep an eye on how the A's deploy him; he is not in the lineup for Wednesday's day game in Seattle.
