Ty Cowan is Washington’s steady, left-handed spark at second base
In the 2026 season, Ty Cowan has been an everyday presence for Washington, starting 49 of 51 games and bringing a contact-first, grinder profile with a .229/.364/.288 slash, 10 doubles, and a team-high 10 hit-by-pitches. He’s not the loudest bat in the lineup, but he’s a tough out who helps extend innings, move runners, and show up in big spots—like his first grand slam of the season in the Big Ten tournament. If you want an infielder who plays hard, takes contact, and fits a lineup that values table-setting and toughness, Cowan checks that box.
