Thaiss went 1-for-4 with a walk and a solo home run Wednesday against the Rangers.

EDGE Analysis

Thaiss took Brett Martin yard in the seventh inning for his first home run of the season. He's spent the majority of the campaign at the team's alternate site and is likely to only serve as depth around the infield. However, it is worth noting that the Angels outfield is banged up and Thaiss earned the start in left field Wednesday.
