St. Louis Cardinals: Lane Thomas promoted to Memphis

Lane Thomas is a 22 year old outfielder, drafted by the Toronto Blue Jays out of high school in the fifth round of the 2014 draft. The St. Louis Cardinals acquired Thomas in July of 2017 by sending the Blue Jays some international pool money.

So far in 2018, Thomas has been playing with Springfield, hitting .260. His most impressive number, by far, is his 21 homers with the team. That number surpasses his previous season high of eight homers in a season. It is safe to say he has found his power stroke this year.
