Links up with Royals Thomas (foot) signed a contract with the Royals on Thursday, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.
Impact Injuries limited Thomas to playing in just 39 games with the Guardians in 2025, as he missed time at the start of the year with a wrist injury before plantar fasciitis in his right foot ended his season in July. When the 30-year-old was healthy, he struggled to remain effective, slashing just .160/.246/.272 over 142 plate appearances. Despite his struggles, Thomas should be able to capture a starting job in a Royals outfield that lacks depth.

SEPTEMBER 23 • MLB.COM
Undergoes season-ending surgery Thomas underwent surgery on his right foot Tuesday and will be sidelined for the next three-to-four months, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.
Impact The surgery addressed the plantar fasciitis issue Thomas has been dealing with this season. With Thomas sidelined for the next few months, his season is effectively over after just 39 games at the big-league level. The 30-year-old slashed a miserable .160/.246/.272 with four home runs, 11 RBI, 10 runs scored, four stolen bases and a 14:44 BB:K across 142 plate appearances. It's fair to wonder if Thomas was completely healthy for even half of those trips to the plate.
