Thomas is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Tigers. With ace southpaw Tarik Skubal toeing the slab for the Tigers, the left-handed-swinging Thomas will begin the contest on the bench. Jordan Lawlar will slide over to center field and Tim Tawa will grab a start in left field for the Diamondbacks.

Alek Thomas: Breaking News
Drives in three in loss
Thomas went 2-for-3 with two doubles, a walk, three RBI and one stolen base in Friday's 5-4 loss to the Dodgers. Thomas did some damage from the No. 8 spot in the order in this contest to avenge his 0-for-3 performance to open the season Thursday. The outfielder looks to be the early favorite for time in center field, though he and Jordan Lawlar made swap between left and center at times. Thomas went 10-for-31 (.323) with six extra-base hits in spring training, and if he can keep the bat hot earlier in the year, he should find himself in an everyday role. He slashed .249/.289/.370 with nine home runs, 19 doubles, three triples, 38 RBI, 51 runs scored and seven stolen bases over 469 plate appearances in the 2025 regular season.
Hits in four straight
Thomas went 1-for-2 with a walk, a home run and three RBI in Saturday's spring game against the Rangers. Thomas gave the Diamondbacks an early lead with a three-run homer in the third inning. It was the second home run of the Cactus League for Thomas, who has hit safely in all four games since returning from the World Baseball Classic. He started in left field Saturday while Jordan Lawlar patrolled center field. Those two have jockeyed between left and center field this spring, as manager Torey Lovullo evaluates the most optimal outfield alignment ahead of Opening Day. Eventually, left fielder Lourdes Gurriel (knee) will return, and the manager will have to figure out how best to deploy all three.
