9/17/24 Arizona Diamondbacks OF Alek Thomas activated in Triple-A. Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Alek Thomas was activated by the Triple-A Reno Aces after missing over a month due a oblique injury. Thomas was sent down to Reno on Aug. 13, and a week later, he was placed on the injured list. The D-backs originally optioned Thomas after his bat struggled to pick up a rhythm across a month-long period in his return from a hamstring injury that had multiple setbacks. In 37 games, Thomas was batting .191.

8/31/24 The 5: Diamondbacks options for September call-ups. The Arizona Diamondbacks can make their September call-ups on Sunday, as major league rosters expand to 28 players — no longer 40. Center fielder Alek Thomas, top prospect Jordan Lawlar and pitching prospect Cristian Mena remain on the injured list with Triple-A Reno and will not be options at the start of September. There are layers to Arizona's decisions, as Ketel Marte and Christian Walker are nearing a return from the 10-day injured list.

7/06/24 FAAB Week 15: Turtle Power.

In preparation of writing about Alek Thomas below, I re-visited this piece in Week 1 and was struck by how much the tenants laid out there remain true this week, well into the thick of the MLB schedule.

What those suggestions (review playing time, spend early, examine schedules, and scout your fantasy league) boil down to is that fantasy baseball is the proverbial marathon over a sprint. Please, blog, may I have some more?

7/02/24 Alek Thomas returns from 'frustrating and stressful' injury rehab. Arizona Diamondbacks center fielder Alek Thomas had never been injured before, so going through a rehab that included a setback, shutdown, PRP injection and slow ramp back up was a “frustrating and stressful” process. Thomas strained his left hamstring on March 31, a high Grade 1 strain that took more than three months to return from. The Diamondbacks activated Thomas on Tuesday after he checked the final boxes he was looking for in a rehab game Monday for Triple-A Reno. “Just consistently running hard and being able to get out of the box, sprint down to first or round the bases or around first base and also do some more work before the game and also just trying to get into a routine that works for me,” Thomas said were the final checkpoints.

6/25/24 Diamondbacks' Alek Thomas joins Triple-A for rehab. Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Alek Thomas has taken the next step of his prolonged rehab from a hamstring injury to join Triple-A Reno, where he will lead off and start at center field Tuesday. Thomas was initially planning to join Reno by the end of last week but was dealing with “general soreness,” the team said. “We'd hate to rush him and have a longer problem, I think that's more of what it is,” D-backs president and CEO Derrick Hall told Arizona Sports' Bickley & Marotta on Thursday.

6/13/24 Bowden: Diamondbacks should eye relievers at MLB trade deadline. As the Arizona Diamondbacks limp through their season with starters on the shelf, prolonged absences into July could force the D-backs' front office to consider adding starting pitching at the trade deadline to make a playoff push. Realistically, the Diamondbacks could improve while being in a holding pattern as a return of those starting pitchers, not to mention outfield Alek Thomas, resets the season. If anything, the D-backs could bolster their bullpen at the deadline. The Athletic's Jim Bowden believes finding reliever help should be Arizona's priority.
