The Diamondbacks optioned Thomas to Triple-A Reno on Wednesday.
He had been losing more and more playing time to the red-hot Jake McCarthy and will now head to Reno, where he'll be given regular reps again. Thomas' elite outfield defense hasn't been able to overcome his weak bat, as he's slashed a woeful .191/.248/.362 across 37 games with Arizona this season.
