Ben Cowles Claimed by Cubs
The Chicago Cubs have claimed infielder Ben Cowles off waivers from the Chicago White Sox. Cowles spent the majority of the 2025 season with the Cubs but was sent to the South Side to join the White Sox in September. However, the White Sox designated the third baseman for assignment in January, and he is now slated to return to the Cubs. The 25-year-old has yet to make his MLB debut. Last summer, he spent his entire campaign at the Triple-A level, playing with the Iowa Cubs and the Charlotte Knights. Through 128 total contests, Cowles held a .235/.300/.371 line with a modest .671 OPS. He went deep nine times and swiped 18 bags. The Maryland product is expected to begin the season at Triple-A and provide infield depth within the Cubs' system.
