Thames went 2-for-5 with two doubles and a run scored in Thursday's victory over the Giants.
EDGE Analysis
Thames looked rusty in his first two games after coming off the disabled list, going 0-for-9 with six strikeouts, but he fared far better at the plate Thursday night. Thames hit leadoff in each of the last 11 games he started, which has helped maximize his at-bats of late.

Thames (hamstring) was activated from the 10-day disabled list Tuesday and is leading off and playing right field against the Nationals.
EDGE Analysis
Thames ended up missing just the minimum amount of time with a hamstring strain. He'll have to fight for playing time with Ryan Braun in the outfield, with Jesus Aguilar having established himself as an All-Star first baseman. He'll win that fight Tuesday, though the playing-time battle will be one to watch going forward.
