Colton Cowser An Early "Front-Runner" To Make The Roster
12 months agoThe Baltimore Banner's Andy Kostka said that outfielder Colton Cowser made some changes to his swing this offseason in order to help him hit the fastball better. Kostka also said that Cowser "is an (early) front-runner to make the (Orioles) Opening Day roster." So far in spring training, the 23-year-old's swing changes have paid off, as he's gone 4-for-11 with three home runs and three walks. As things stand now, Cowser could be Baltimore's fourth outfielder to open the 2024 regular season. He obviously doesn't have any appeal in mixed fantasy leagues, but Cowser could be worth a look in AL-only formats if he continues to hit well and earn more playing time for the reigning American League East champions. Cowser struck out almost 30% of the time with the O's in 2023 but did hit 17 home runs at Triple-A Norfolk.
