According to this report from Nikkan Sports (Japanese only), Thomas has made the team. The article states that he threw about 50 pitches in the bullpen, and the decision to sign him was made on the 22nd. Fighters' manager Trey Hillman thinks he'll be a part of the starting rotation.

About
This is a site about Pro Yakyu (Japanese Baseball), not about who the next player to go over to MLB is. It's a community of Pro Yakyu fans who have come together to share their knowledge and opinions with the world. It's a place to follow teams and individuals playing baseball in Japan (and Asia), and to learn about Japanese (and Asian) culture through baseball.
It is my sincere hope that once you learn a bit about what we're about here that you will join the community of contributors.
