Because he’s old as dirt.   He will be fine coming off the bench
He sucks coming off the bench.

Hitting .362/.433/.586 since becoming the primary LFer

Lane Thomas is not going to out hit Yadi. No reason to keep him unless he falls off a cliff, regardless of his age. Go pursue a CF who can defend and out it Robles (not really hard) and play Yadi in LF.

So, as we are rebuilding, let’s play a guy that is probably 38, over a prospect we just picked up?   Smart rebuilding strategy

Cannot allow him to face that feared slugger Lane Thomas.

For 2022, sure.

If anything, Thomas is playing Stevenson out of a job

I feel like we’re in one of those “we’ve secretly replaced Patrick Corbin…” commercials.

Soto leads majors in walks (93), unusual for him to swing at that.

Absolutely should have pulled him. He barely got Escobar.

I'm enjoying a bourbon with a splash of water.  I did eat a nectarine about an hour ago.

He got an ID when he was 15 that said he was 21. He's really 27.


But seriously, I doubt Lane Thomas is a regular everyday player and as Slate said, he is showing he may be better than Stevenson.
