Steals, scores in loss Thompson went 0-for-2 with two walks, a stolen base and a run scored in Friday's 9-7 extra-inning loss to Oakland.
Impact Thompson made his first start in seven games, which is appropriate for a player hitting .178. He's reached base 11 times (eight hits, three walks) over 49 plate appearances and attempted four steals (caught once). Thompson's always looking to run, so the two walks were hopeful sign.

Registers second steal Thompson went 0-for-1 with a stolen base and a run scored in Saturday's 10-1 win over the Angels.
Impact The Rangers had a great ninth inning -- Thompson initially entered as a pinch runner for Robbie Grossman, and he still got a turn at the plate, flying out to end a seven-run rally. Playing time is still a bit sparse for Thompson, and it's deserved, as he's slashing a meager .186/.205/.326 through 45 plate appearances. He's 2-for-3 on stolen base attempts, and he's added three RBI, eight runs scored, four doubles and a triple.

Collects two hits in win Thompson started in left field, going 2-for-4 and was caught stealing in Saturday's 2-0 win over the Yankees.
Impact Thompson, who made his first start in five games, entered the contest with one hit over his last 17 at-bats. He's always a threat to steal but getting on base has been problematic for Thompson, who has one walk and a .258 OBP over 32 plate appearances. Travis Jankowswki, who started in center field for a resting Leody Taveras on Saturday, has emerged as a semi-regular, which makes Thompson's roster spot precarious. When Corey Seager (hamstring) returns, Thompson could be sent down while either Josh Smith or Ezequiel Duran remain to serve as the fifth outfielder.

Steals first bag Thompson went 1-for-2 with a walk, a stolen base and a run scored in Monday's 7-6 loss to the Reds.
Impact Thompson snapped an 0-for-15 skid with a bunt single in the second inning and later scored after stealing his first bag following his first walk of the season. He had 18 steals in 55 games last season, but Thompson's been a forgotten man in the outfield rotation in 2023. To use speed, a player has to get on base, and Thompson isn't doing that (.214 OBP).
APRIL 25, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Moves to bench Wednesday Thompson is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Royals.
Impact After starting in each of Texas' last three games while going 3-for-12 with three extra-base hits, three runs and three RBI, Thompson will take a seat in the series finale. Leody Taveras (oblique) was activated from the 10-day injured list and will start in center field Wednesday, but Thompson could still have a path to playing time in the corner outfield with Josh Smith and Ezequiel Duran likely to see more time in the infield for the foreseeable future after star shortstop Corey Seager (hamstring) was placed on the IL.

Sparks slumping offense Thompson started in center field and went 2-for-4 with a double, a triple, two RBI and two runs scored in Sunday's 8-2 win over the Cubs.
Impact The Rangers' offense slumbered through the first two games of the series in Chicago, before Bubba Thompson and Travis Jankowski made their first starts of the season Sunday. The duo combined to go 3-for-7 with three RBI, three extra-base hits, four runs and a stolen base out the final spots in the order. To make room in the lineup for both players, Adolis Garcia moved from center field to designated hitter, and slumping right fielder Robbie Grossman (one hit in last 18 at-bats) rode the pine. Rangers manager Bruce Bochy has much to consider going forward. Center fielder Leody Taveras (oblique) is on rehab assignment and could return as early as Monday. For Thompson to land a regular gig, he could be part of the mix in left field, which had been penciled in as Grossman's job (with a healthy Taveras in center) and was being filled by Josh Smith and Ezequiel Duran.

Remains on bench vs. lefty Thompson remains out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Phillies.
Impact Thompson appeared as though he might get a look in an everyday role to begin the season with top center fielder Leody Taveras (oblique) on the inured list, but Thompson has instead handled a reserve role for the entirety of Texas' three-game series with Philadelphia. Rangers manager Bruce Bochy may not even be viewing the righty-hitting Thompson as a short-side platoon player, as the 24-year-old will continue to ride pine Sunday even with a southpaw (Bailey Falter) on the mound for Philadelphia. Adolis Garcia will start in center field once again and is being flanked by Ezequiel Duran in left field and Robbie Grossman in right field.
APRIL 2, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
On the bench for opener Thompson is not in the Rangers' lineup for Thursday's opener against the Phillies.
Impact With Leody Taveras (oblique) out, the Rangers have elected to slide Adolis Garcia over to center field and he will be flanked by Josh H. Smith and Robbie Grossman. Thompson should still be in the mix for starts in center until Taveras returns, but it doesn't appear he's the preferred option.

Could take over in center field Thompson is a candidate to handle center field for the Rangers while Leody Taveras (oblique) is sidelined.
Impact Taveras has a low-grade oblique strain, which has his status for Opening Day up in the air. Thompson might have been on the outside looking in for a roster spot if Taveras had been healthy, but he's probably the team's best defensive option in center field for as long as Taveras is sidelined. While his ability with the bat is still in question, Thompson's ability to steal bases would make him a viable fantasy option in deep leagues if he's getting regular at-bats. Texas could also consider moving Adolis Garcia from right field to center.

Shows off legs Thompson went 0-for-2 with a walk and stole a base in Sunday's spring game against the Angels.
Impact Thompson was scratched Saturday due to tightness in his legs, but he showed no issue with his lower half during Sunday's game. The player who stole 18 bags in 55 games last season reached base twice and attempted to steal each time. Thompson also made a sliding catch to help starter Cole Ragans escape a third-inning jam. The 24-year-old outfielder started in center field, as the Rangers were without projected starter Leody Taveras (side discomfort). Thompson has the most experience in center among the spare outfielders vying for a roster spot, and that experience could give him an advantage over someone like Brad Miller.

Returns to lineup Sunday Thompson is leading off and playing center field Sunday against the Angels in Cactus League play.
Impact Thompson was scheduled to have the day off after being scratched Saturday due to tightness in his legs, but after Leody Taveras was scratched from the lineup Sunday due to left side tightness, the speedy outfielder was called into action. Considering the time of year and the exhibition nature of Cactus League games, Thompson is obviously feeling healthy and should be fine for the start of the campaign.
MARCH 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Scratched Saturday Thompson was scratched Saturday due to tightness in his legs, Evan Grant of the Dallas Morning News reports.
Impact Thompson made a noteworthy contribution in his MLB debut last season, swiping 18 bases over 55 games. However, it's unclear if there's a spot for him on the major-league roster to start 2023. He has the most center-field experience among the Rangers' depth outfielders, so he could give Leody Taveras a break when needed, but the team may want him to get regular playing time at Triple-A Round Rock. In that case, right fielder Adolis Garcia would cover center when Taveras sits.
