Athletics' Cody Thomas: Optioned to Triple-A
Thomas (Achilles) was optioned to Triple-A Las Vegas on Sunday, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports. Thomas underwent offseason Achilles surgery and isn't available for camp, and he should report to the Triple-A level when healthy. He appeared in 59 games for Las Vegas last year and slashed .289/.363/.665 with 18 home runs, 52 RBI and 46 runs. If the 27-year-old performs well once he's healthy, it wouldn't be surprising to see him make his major-league debut at some point in 2022.
