Thames (groin) will be considered day-to-day moving forward as it was determined Monday that he'll avoid the disabled list, Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

EDGE Analysis

This comes as a relief to an injury-ridden Brewers squad, who just lost Manny Pina (calf) to the 10-day disabled list. After a positive medical evaluation, Thames figures to return to the lineup within the next few days.

Thames will have his groin injury examined Monday to determine whether or not he'll end up on the disabled list, Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

EDGE Analysis

Thames was removed in the third inning of Sunday's game against the Mets and remained out of the lineup Monday. The Brewers are already in something of an injury crisis, so if Thames has to miss more than a couple games, he'll likely end up on the DL.

Thames (groin) is not in the lineup Monday against the Reds.

EDGE Analysis

Thames left Sunday's game prematurely due to what is now being dubbed as a mild groin strain, and it seems like it hasn't gotten better overnight. He'll remain day-to-day for now, allowing Jesus Aguilar to pick up a start at first base.

Thames's injury is a mild left groin strain, MLB.com's Adam McCalvy reports. "It's been sore for a little bit, but that first at-bat kind of aggravated it," Thames said. "Cold weather, that kind of stuff. Tomorrow, we'll do some [treatment]. The trainers did a great job of getting me heated up, so tomorrow we'll come back and see how it feels."

EDGE Analysis

The injury to Thames is particularly ill-timed, with Ryan Braun and Manny Pina both day-to-day, Lorenzo Cain playing at less than full health and Christian Yelich on the DL. The Brewers are optimistic that Thames can play this week, but it'll be hard for them to avoid a roster move if at least two of those injured players can't return. They have seven games this upcoming week, five against right-handed starters, which would otherwise bode well for Thames.

Thames exited Sunday's game against the Mets early with an apparent injury, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Thames was lifted in the third inning after striking out against Noah Syndergaard. The reason for his removal was not clear, so we'll await word from the Brewers on that front. He was replaced by Jesus Aguilar at first base.

Thames will take a seat as the Brewers face the left-handed Steven Matz on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Thames is off to another hot start this April, hitting .263/.364/.711 with 5 homers in 44 plate appearances. He's being protected against lefties, which should help his batting average while cutting into his counting stats. Jesus Aguilar will start at first base in his place.

Thames went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's victory over the Cardinals.

EDGE Analysis

Wednesday's blast was the veteran's fourth homer in his last five starts, adding on to what has been a very strong start for him. Thames now has a 1.075 OPS in 38 at-bats, and he should be able to continue getting opportunities to club homers while both Christian Yelich (oblique) and Lorenzo Cain (quad) are sidelined.

Thames went 2-for-5 with a solo home run, two runs scored and a walk in Milwaukee's 5-3 extra-inning defeat to the Cardinals on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

It was the third homer in the last four games for the lefty slugger after he'd hit one in his first seven contests. That's the type of power groove that resulted in his 31-homer breakout of last season and despite a pedestrian .235 batting average, Thames has a solid .350 on base percentage and a ridiculous .647 slugging percentage to go along with his four long balls. As long he's putting up numbers like that, Thames will remain a fantasy factor even if he gets the periodic day off against left-handed pitchers.

Thames is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cubs.

EDGE Analysis

Thames has popped a homer in each of the team's past two games but will head to the bench as the Brewers take on southpaw Jose Quintana and the Cubs. Jesus Aguilar draws first base duties with Ryan Braun occupying left field. Thames should rejoin the starting lineup Monday against the Cardinals.

Thames went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 5-2 loss to the Cubs.

EDGE Analysis

It's his third home run of the season and second in as many days, as half of his hits through nine games have left the yard. Thames made an impressive return to MLB last year with 31 homers, and so far in 2018 he seems intent on blowing past that total.
