Atlanta Braves Weighing Potential Offseason Re-Signing of Lane Thomas

The Atlanta Braves are evaluating whether to re-sign outfielder Lane Thomas for 2027 following an injury-shortened 2026 stint. Thomas struggled against righties and saw limited plate appearances in Atlanta, but his strong career mark against lefties makes him an affordable platoon or DH option. Projecting for roughly half a win over half a season, Thomas would represent a low-cost depth addition.
