Recent reports say that Eric Thames is rehabbing at the Milwaukee Brewers Spring Training facility. That is good news. Without any setbacks, that means Thames could rejoin the Crew at some point during the month of June.
Will Thames Start?
Logic would dictate that Thames will be starting, or at least platooning, when he returns. Ji-Man Choi will likely be optioned back down to the minors, and Jesus Aguilar will be a part time first baseman again. However, the one detail throwing a wrench in all of these plans is Aguilar has been playing really well.
