Player Notes
July 29, 2008
Braves farmhand Scott Thorman was placed on the inactive list as he will go to Shanghai to play for Canada in the Olympics, according to the AP.
June 5, 2008
Scott Thorman hit a pair of home runs for Triple-A Richmond on Wednesday, giving him nine for the season.
March 28, 2008
The Braves sent Scott Thorman outright to Triple-A Richmond Friday. The former first-round pick was the team's opening day starter at first last year, but he hit just .216 with 11 homers and 36 RBI in 120 games. It's pretty safe to call the 26-year-old Thorman a bust at this point.
March 14, 2008
With rumors abound that the Braves are actively shopping 1B Scott Thorman , the recent performances may suggest a need for re-evaluation. Early spring struggles appear to be subsided as the upswing first bagger is finding his groove at the plate. In today’s 9-1 trouncing of the Philadelphia Phillies, Thorman went 1-for-3 with a home run, earning three RBIs. That’s seven RBIs in Thorman’s last two games. It may be the Braves should consider retaining the man they are shopping rather than hoping unproven options (namely Mark Kotsay, Brayan Pena, and Matt Diaz) rise to the occasion.
March 9, 2008
Scott Thorman has been struggling at the plate but erupted for four RBI on Sunday, while also collecting his first home run of the spring. The Braves are reportedly trying to deal Thorman, and a performance like this will improve his worth and help him land elsewhere.
March 8, 2008
The Braves are shopping backup 1B Scott Thorman , according to Scout.com. Billy Shanks reports the Braves are leaning towards other options for first base, including Mark Kotsay (28 games in his career), Brayan Pena (22 games at first in AAA last season), Matt Diaz (2 games there last year), and Joe Borchard (1 game). It is clear the position is in flux and all signs point to change. Stay tuned.

It's going to be difficult for Scott Thorman to earn a job this spring as a pinch-hitter and backup at first base and left field, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. "It's going to be hard, because (Mark) Teixeira is going to play his 150 games," manager Bobby Cox said. "We're going to give [Thorman] time in left field [in spring training], for sure." Thorman is out of minor league options, so if he doesn't make the team, he'll be traded or placed on waivers.
