Cleveland manager Stephen Vogt said Monday that Thomas (foot) met with a doctor and has a new rehab plan in place, MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Vogt described Thomas' plantar fasciitis as a "complicated case," and his return is taking longer than expected as the foot hasn't responded to treatment. The report estimates a potential return to the field in September. In the meantime, Angel Martinez has filled in as the Guardians' primary center fielder.

Thomas (foot) is doing baseball activities but is progressing "a little slower" than originally hoped, MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Thomas, who was placed on the 10-day injured list retroactive to July 5, received an injection during the All-Star break. This is his third stint on the IL this season and second because of the foot.

The Guardians placed Thomas on the 10-day injured list Sunday due to plantar fasciitis in his right foot, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Cleveland recalled infielder Will Wilson from Triple-A Columbus in a corresponding move, but Angel Martinez is likely to serve as the Guardians' primary option in center field while Thomas is on the shelf. The 30-year-old outfielder is on the IL for the third time this season and for the second straight time with the same injury. He previously missed about two weeks in late May and early June with the foot issue.

Thomas (foot) isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Tigers.
EDGE Analysis
Symptoms of plantar fasciitis forced Thomas to make an early exit from Friday's game, and it will now cost him a start Saturday. While he sits, Steven Kwan, Nolan Jones and Johnathan Rodriguez will start across the outfield for Cleveland.

Thomas was removed from Friday's game against the Tigers due to mild plantar fasciitis symptoms, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Thomas went 0-for-2 in Friday's contest before his foot forced him to make an early exit in the sixth inning. It remains to be seen how much time, if any, the 29-year-old will miss, though the Guardians should provide more details in the near future.

Thomas went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesdays' 5-4 extra-inning win over the Blue Jays.
EDGE Analysis
Thomas tied the game at 4-4 with a home run off Nick Sandlin in the sixth inning. The 29-year-old has now gone deep in back-to-back games and is 11-for-42 with an .830 OPS across 14 June contests. For the season, he's slashing just .178/.248/.277 with three homers, 10 RBI, seven runs scored and three steals over 113 plate appearances.

Thomas went 2-for-4 with a walk and a three-run home run in Tuesday's 10-6 loss to the Blue Jays.
EDGE Analysis
Thomas, who went 3-for-26 (.115) during the Guardians' recent road trip, returned to Cleveland on Tuesday and popped a home run for the second straight game at Progressive Field. He's battled a couple of injuries early this season that have limited Thomas to a mere 30 games. He's currently in his longest stretch of good health this season. Thomas has a .237/.341/.395 line with two home runs, six RBI, two steals and four runs over 13 games since returning from his most recent injury.

Thomas went 3-for-5 with a three-run home run and a second run scored in Wednesday's 11-2 win over the Reds.
EDGE Analysis
The 29-year-old outfielder put the cherry on top of the rout when he took Joe La Sorsa deep in the sixth inning. It was Thomas' first homer of the year in his 20th game as well as his first three-hit effort, as injuries have derailed the beginning to his campaign. He's started two of three games in center field since returning from his most recent IL stint, and even after Wednesday's big performance he's slashing just .164/.227/.224.

Thomas is not in the lineup for Tuesday's contest versus the Reds.
EDGE Analysis
The Reds are sending left-hander Andrew Abbott to the bump, so this is likely more about easing Thomas back into action after he returned from the injured list Monday. Nolan Jones is in center field for the Guardians.

Thomas went 1-for-3 with two walks and a stolen base in Monday's 7-4 loss to the Reds.
EDGE Analysis
It was Thomas' first appearance since May 26 following his second stint on the injured list this season, and he made his presence felt right away. Monday marked the first time all year that the speedy outfielder drew multiple walks, and he also stole his second base across 18 games this year. Thomas has mostly struggled at the plate -- he's hitting .129 with a lone extra-base hit and three RBI through 62 at-bats -- but it was encouraging to see him bat second in Cleveland's order for the fifth time in 2025.
