Making another start Stowers is starting in left field and batting fifth for the Orioles on Thursday in Kansas City, Jacob Calvin Meyer of The Baltimore Sun reports.
Summoned to majors The Orioles recalled Stowers from Triple-A Norfolk on Sunday.
Impact With the Orioles' recent stretch of facing left-handed pitching coming to an end, the team is opting to swap an extra right-handed bat (Joey Ortiz) off the 26-man active roster in favor of a left-handed one (Stowers). Though he secured a spot on Baltimore's Opening Day roster, Stowers saw action in just three games before being optioned to Norfolk on April 9. He's posted a 1.005 OPS over 71 plate appearances in the International League this season.

Sent to minors The Orioles optioned Stowers to Triple-A Norfolk on Sunday.
Impact The 25-year-old Stowers started in just one of the Orioles' first eight games, and because he still has some developmental upside, the organization wants to give him the chance to play on an everyday basis. He'll get the chance to do that as he returns to Norfolk, while the Orioles activated catcher James McCann (oblique) from the 10-day injured list to fill the opening on the 26-man active roster.
APRIL 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Receives first start Stowers is in left field and batting sixth for the Orioles in Monday's game in Texas.
Impact It's the first start of the season for Stowers, who had been limited to one pinch-hitting appearance which resulted in a strikeout. It had seemed like the 25-year-old was headed for a significant role between designated hitter and some starts in the outfield, but that hasn't come to fruition yet.

Not starting Saturday Stowers remains on the bench Saturday against Boston, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.
Impact Stowers featured regularly down the stretch last season and seemed to have the chance to do the same at the start of this year, with the designated hitter spot his most likely home. Instead, the Orioles have rotated other regulars through the position, with Gunnar Henderson serving as the DH on Opening Day and Anthony Santander filling the role Saturday.

MLB 26-and-under power rankings: No. 3 Baltimore Orioles
With a loaded farm and young hitting talent already making waves in the majors, the Orioles check in near the top of our 26-and-under power...MARCH 23, 2023 • FOX SPORTS
Decent start to spring Stowers has gone 5-for-13 with a double, two RBI, one run scored and a 3:3 BB:K across five Grapefruit League games.
Impact Stowers did alright in his first taste of the majors last season, slashing .253/.306/.418 with three home runs, one triple, four doubles, 11 RBI and 11 runs scored across 98 plate appearances last season. The 25-year-old enters 2023 unlikely to win an outfield spot all to himself, but the lefty hitter should have a good chance to play a strong-side platoon role either at designated hitter or in a corner outfield position.

The rookie outfielder has hit .300 (12-for-40) in September, and he's posted a .268/.316/.408 slash line with two home runs, nine RBI, nine runs scored and a pair of doubles across 76 plate appearances in the majors this year.
SEPTEMBER 27, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Drives in three runs Stowers went 2-for-4 with a home run, three RBI and two runs scored in Wednesday's 8-1 victory over Detroit.
Impact With the Orioles already up 3-0 and a runner on base in the sixth inning, Stowers took Matt Manning deep to center for his second long ball of the season and extend the lead to five. He also singled in a run in the eighth inning to give him three RBI on the night. The big night helps the rookie's case for increased playing time, but it remains unlikely that he plays every day to close the season.

He should play pretty regularly as the Orioles look to see how his hit tool translates at the highest level.
