Despite a right shoulder injury that prematurely ended a season in which he was challenging for the NCAA Division I home run title with 17 homers in 42 games, Thomas’ production was more than enough for the A’s to select him in the third round of the 2022 Draft out of Mercer University. Fully recovered from the torn labrum, he debuted in 2023 and made a case for the organization’s player of the year award, combining to hit .286/.351/.493, 18 homers, 39 doubles and 82 RBIs in 126 games between Single-A Stockton and High-A Lansing.
Thomas demonstrated a ton of raw power in his debut season, but the A’s believe he has even more to tap into. He is able to drive the ball to the opposite-field gaps with a compact swing and has also shown improvements in his selectivity at the plate with a solid ability to work counts and draw walks.
Thomas is a solid athletic outfielder with a good arm who continues to play some center field but profiles as more of a corner outfielder. He is a good runner with speed that was evident by his 25 stolen bases in ‘23. Carrying over the momentum from a strong pro debut is the key for a season that has the A’s excited about what is to follow as he advances levels.
