  • Guardians' Lane Thomas: Makes fourth rehab appearance

    Thomas (wrist) went 1-for-4 with a double for Triple-A Columbus on Saturday. He's 2-for-13 over four games while on a rehab assignment with the Clippers.

    Cleveland manager Stephen Vogt told MLB.com that Thomas is doing "really, really good." The Guardians estimated the outfielder would require about a week's worth of rehab games, which may come to end Sunday. Thomas has been on the 10-day injured list since April 20.

  • Guardians' Lane Thomas: Will need week of rehab games

    Thomas (wrist) will require at least a week's worth of rehab games with Triple-A Columbus before being activated from the 10-day injured list, MLB.com reports.

    Thomas began his rehab assignment Tuesday with Columbus, going 0-for-3 with two strikeouts out of the designated hitter spot. The Guardians have a series in Minnesota that runs through next Wednesday, so the earliest Thomas rejoins the Guardians might be for the start of their series in Detroit on May 22. Angel Martinez has played well in center field since Thomas injured his right wrist a month ago, so Thomas might not be guaranteed regular playing time once he returns.

  • Guardians' Lane Thomas: Cleared for rehab assignment

    Guardians manager Stephen Vogt confirmed that Thomas (wrist) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Columbus this week, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.

    Thomas has been on the shelf since April 22 with a right wrist bone bruise, but he's been free of pain for a few days now and is ready to test himself in minor-league games. Before landing on the 10-day injured list, Thomas had gotten off to a miserable start to the season, slashing .156/.188/.178 over his first 13 games. Thomas may need to produce well at the plate during his rehab assignment to convince the Guardians that he's ready to take back an everyday role in center field from Angel Martinez once he's activated.

  • Guardians' Lane Thomas: Could soon begin rehab assignment

    The Guardians are hopeful Thomas (wrist) will begin a rehab assignment this week, MLB.com reports.

    Thomas ramped up to baseball activities within the last week, and manager Stephen Vogt said Friday that the outfielder is "pain free." Cleveland is targeting a mid-to-late May return for Thomas.

  • Guardians' Lane Thomas: Taking swings

    Thomas (wrist) has begun a swinging progression, MLB.com reports.

    Guardians manager Stephen Vogt said Monday that Thomas will "soon" participate in baseball activities, such has hitting, running and fielding. The outfielder first injured the wrist April 8, returned after a week, then aggravated the injury and landed on the 10-day injured list. A combination of (mostly) Angel Martinez, Nolan Jones and Daniel Schneemann have filled in at center field.

  • Guardians' Lane Thomas: Lands on IL with wrist bone bruise

    The Guardians placed Thomas on the 10-day injured list Tuesday with a right wrist bone bruise.

    Thomas first suffered the injury two weeks ago when he was hit on the wrist by a pitch. He's been in and out of the lineup since then and evidently still isn't 100 percent, so the Guardians elected to make a roster move. Thomas will be eligible to return April 30, but it's not clear whether he'll be ready to go on that date. Angel Martinez has been receiving the lion's share of playing time in center field lately and should continue to do so.

  • Guardians' Lane Thomas: Falling into reserve role

    Thomas is not in the lineup for Monday's contest versus the Yankees.

    Thomas made three straight starts last week after returning from a wrist injury, but he'll be on the bench Monday for the third game in a row. Angel Martinez is again in center field for the Guardians on Monday and appears to have emerged as manager Stephen Vogt's top option at the position, at least against right-handed pitching.

  • Guardians' Lane Thomas: Snaps hitless stretch

    Thomas batted second in the order and went 2-for-5 with two runs scored in Friday's 10-7 win over Pittsburgh.

    Thomas was moved up from his normal spot in the order (fifth) and ended an 0-for-11 run with a single in the third inning. Moving Thomas to second set off a domino effect of Jose Ramirez dropping from second to third and Carlos Santana from third to fifth. It's unclear if the new arrangement was a one-game thing or if it has more permanency, but given the team scored a season-high 10 runs, manager Stephen Vogt may continue to use Thomas as the No. 2 hitter.

  • Guardians' Lane Thomas: Not starting Saturday

    Thomas is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against Pittsburgh, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.

    Thomas went 2-for-5 and scored two runs Friday, snapping what had been an 0-for-11 drought at the plate. He'll now grab a seat on the bench against Paul Skenes and the Pirates, giving Angel Martinez an opportunity to start in center field.

  • Guardians' Lane Thomas: Making first start since April 8

    Thomas (wrist) will start in center field and bat fifth in Wednesday's game in Baltimore.

    Thomas will re-enter the starting nine for the first time since April 8, after a bruised right wrist kept him on the bench for six straight games. He went unused in the first five contests but struck out as a pinch hitter and played the final three innings in center field of Tuesday's 6-3 win. Injury aside, Thomas has gotten off to a tough start to the season, as he'll take a .161/.206/.194 batting line into Wednesday's contest.

With an off day looming Monday, the Guardians are hoping Thomas will be recovered for the team's three-game series in Baltimore that begins Tuesday. Angel Martinez will cover center field Sunday in Thomas' absence.

  • Guardians' Lane Thomas: Remains out Thursday

    Thomas (wrist) remains out of the lineup for Thursday's game versus the White Sox, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.

    Thomas will miss a second straight start as he deals with a right wrist contusion. He's feeling "much better" after treatment and could be available off the bench Thursday, per Guardians manager Stephen Vogt. Nolan Jones is again handling center field Thursday, while Jhonkensy Noel will patrol right field.

  • Guardians' Lane Thomas: Sitting out with bruised wrist

    Thomas (wrist) is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's tilt against the White Sox.

    Thomas exited Tuesday's 1-0 win after being hit on the right wrist by a pitch. He managed to avoid any fractures, but Thomas is likely sore and will be given at least one day of rest, though manager Stephen Vogt said that the outfielder may be available off the bench, per Tim Stebbins of MLB.com. Nolan Jones will slide over from right field to cover Thomas' usual post in center field Wednesday.
