Anything more than free is too much for Thomas

Eh, it depends on what they give up. The dude just turned 26. He was DFA’d and won’t garner much. Just don’t trade a prospect like Fajardo for him to get back Cam freaking Booser and get absolutely owned in the trade.

Thomas does have 1 more MiLB option left, so he wouldn't be required to stick on the active roster.

It seems to me that Thomas may have had a higher opinion of his value than the D-backs did. Apparently, they wanted to show him by putting him on waivers. I'm guessing they're just done with him.

Wow, lol. Definitely sounds like he is pissed at Thomas and trying to prove a point.

It also seems like they wanted to option him, and he might have said the things Hazen refers to.

Acuna would be a good trade.

Garbage in, garbage out.

Still not difficult at all to imagine Thomas outperforming both Peters and Acuna for the remainder of the season.

(But then you also have to fit in Pereira/Hays/Kelenic somewhere as well.)
