The Diamondbacks' center fielder has missed all but three games this year, but his return seems imminent.
Arizona Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo gave an update regarding centerfielder Alek Thomas' rehab games and next steps. Thomas has missed all but four games this year due to a hamstring strain, and has hadThomas played last night for the Reno Aces, his third game in this most recent round of rehab games. He went 1-4 last night, and is 2-16 overall. The results are secondary to the Diamondbacks however. The main focus is on how Thomas's legs are feeling.
Asked if having four outfielders on the roster that have performed well in June has given the team the luxury to slow play Thomas's return, Lovullo rejected that notion without ambiguity. "This is all on Alek... I asked him last night if this was more swing fundamental, something that was bothering him about his game that he wanted to feel. He said no, this is more about his body and him getting in tune with where he's at with his body."
