Trayce Thompson Stats

Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Trayce Thompson (personal) has been scratched from the starting lineup on Thursday against the division-rival San Diego Padres due to a personal issue. Manager Dave Roberts said Thompson will be away from the team for a day, so he could return on Friday. With Thompson out, Miguel Vargas will get the start in left field and will bat seventh in the lineup against Padres right-handed opener Steven Wilson. Vargas will be a low-upside DFS play on Thursday night. The 22-year-old Cuban rookie will be playing in just his 13th major-league game. In his 39 at-bats so far, he has just seven hits (a homer) and five RBI.

The Detroit Tigers agreed to trade outfielder Trayce Thompson to the Los Angeles Dodgers for cash considerations on Monday. Thompson will rejoin a Dodgers team that he last played for in 2016, a season in which he hit .225 with 13 homers. The Dodgers were in need of some outfield depth after losing Mookie Betts (ribs) and Kevin Pillar (shoulder) to injury over the past few weeks. Thompson was hitting .305 with 17 homers at Triple-A this season while getting one hit in 14 at-bats at the big-league level.

Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Trayce Thompson was traded to the Chicago Cubs for cash considerations on Tuesday, according to Tommy Birch of the Des Moines Register. Thompson had started off the year at Triple-A, slashing .278/.350/.333 with a double, two walks and two runs scored over his first four games. With Ian Happ and Jake Marisnick on the injured list, this provides the Cubs with some organizational depth in the outfield should any more injuries crop up.
