Of those teams i think the Royals are the most likely to take Thomson, they want to get out of the cellar and with Zack Greinke's status still unknown and Joe Mays not having a very good spring Thomson serves a need the Royals have for another decent starter. I'm not sure the Braves could get Affeldt for him though, with Mike MacDougal out for at least a month Affeldt could be called upon to Close. Gobble though, they could probably get.
