Rockies' Jared Thomas: Drafted 42nd overall - CBSSports.com

Category: Sports

The Rockies have selected Thomas with the 42nd overall pick in the 2024 First-Year Player Draft. Thomas is a college outfielder from Texas with good bat-to-ball skills and developing power. He has sacrificed some plate discipline for more game power, but focusing on the hit tool could bring out his power potential, especially in Coors Field. Thomas also possesses enough speed to potentially play center field.
