Not only does he bring a ton of skill with that nasty curveball, but he’s got the mentality and leadership we need to help us make a serious push this season.”
Head Coach Will Myers echoed those sentiments, adding, “Clint’s presence really helps stabilize our bullpen. He has a calm under pressure that’s contagious, and his ability to miss bats will be a big boost for us. We’ve had our ups and downs in late innings, but with Clint, I’m confident we’re bringing in someone who can help us shut down opponents and close out games effectively.”
Standing at 6'3" and 195 pounds, Thomas combines his size and skill to command respect on the mound. Known nationally for his popularity and charisma, Clint has already built a reputation as a fan favorite and is expected to bring a surge of excitement to the Wolves' fanbase.
