    Blue Jays Claim Ben Cowles, Lose Bowden Francis

    The Toronto Blue Jays have added infield depth to their roster by claiming Ben Cowles off waivers from the Chicago Cubs. Cowles, a 26-year-old utility player, was originally drafted by the New York Yankees and spent three years in their system before being traded to the Cubs. Despite breaking his wrist in 2021, Cowles was ranked as a top 15 prospect in the Cubs organization due to his bat-to-ball skills, swing decisions, and power potential. In Triple-A last season, he hit .305 with a .371 on-base percentage and .371 slugging percentage, driving in 49 runs and stealing 18 bases. Cowles versatility at second base, shortstop, third base, and left field makes him a valuable addition to the Blue Jays as they deal with early injuries. Checkout https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
