Thames is not in the lineup for Friday's game against the Pirates.
EDGE Analysis
The Brewers are facing a lefty in Steven Brault, so Thames will give way to Jesus Aguilar at first base, as is the norm. Thames saw a seven-game hitting streak come to an end Thursday. He's batting .308/.396/.679 with seven homers since the start of June and seems to be locked into the heart of the order against right-handed pitching.

Thames went 1-for-3 with a walk and solo home run Tuesday against the Reds.
EDGE Analysis
Thames took Tanner Roark deep in the fifth inning to record his 13th homer of the season. He's come alive at the dish of late, homering in three of his last four starts. While his playing time remains inconsistent, Thames has managed an impressive .273/.387/.545 line across 225 plate appearances for the campaign.

Thames went 2-for-4 with a triple, a home run and two RBI in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Pirates.
EDGE Analysis
His solo shot in the fourth inning snapped an 11-game homer drought for Thames, although he only started six of those 11 contests. On the season, the 32-year-old is slashing .270/.383/.522 with 11 home runs and 34 RBI in 75 games.

Thames remains out of the lineup Wednesday against the Padres.
EDGE Analysis
As expected, Thames remains stuck on the bench with yet another lefty (Matt Strahm) on the mound for San Diego. He'll have a good chance to start the final four games of the week, however, as the Reds will throw four straight righties. Yasmani Grandal gets the start at first base.

Thames will remain on the bench against lefty Logan Allen and the Padres on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
The Padres are starting three straight lefties, so it's likely Thames will be stuck on the bench all series. Jesus Aguilar gets the nod at first base as usual in his absence.
