The Houston Astros claimed outfielder Rhylan Thomas off waivers from the Seattle Mariners.

In a corresponding move, right-hander Hunter Bown was transferred from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL.

Thomas was an 11th-round pick in the 2022 MLB Draft by the New York Mets. He was traded to the Mariners in 2024 in exchange for veteran right-hander Ryne Stanek.

In 2025, Thomas appeared in three major league games for the Mariners, going 1-8 with a double, two RBIs and a walk.

This season, the 26-year-old recorded two home runs, nine RBIs, six stolen bases and a .260/.313/.328 batting line across 31 games for Triple-A Tacoma.
