Collin Cowgill: Embarks on coaching career
The Mariners announced Wednesday that Collin Cowgill has been hired as the manager for the organization's Double-A affiliate in Arkansas, signaling the end of his playing career, Corey Brock of The Athletic reports.Cowgill had previously joined the Seattle organization on a minor-league deal last winter, but he didn't receive a promotion to the big club at any point during the 60-game 2020 campaign. The 34-year-old outfielder likely could have landed another minor-league deal this offseason if he wanted to keep his playing career going, but he'll instead transition into coaching. Cowgill, who last appeared in the majors in 2016, retires with a .234/.297/.329 slash line across 759 career plate appearances with the Diamondbacks, Athletics, Angels, Mets and Indians over parts of six big-league seasons.

Mariners' Collin Cowgill: Still battling for roster spot
Collin Cowgill was still battling for a roster spot when spring training was suspended, Greg Johns of MLB.com reports.The veteran, who last saw major-league regular-season action with the Indians in 2016, hit .250 (4-for-16) with one home run, one RBI and two runs across 12 Cactus League games. Cowgill appears to be battling Carlos Gonzalez for the final outfield spot, as Jarred Kelenic is expected to start the season at Double-A Arkansas and Braden Bishop has already been optioned to minor-league camp. Cowgill's best all-around big-league campaign came back in 2014 with the Angels, when he slashed .250/.330/.354 with 16 extra-base hits (10 doubles, one triple, five home runs) and 21 RBI across 106 games.
