The Orioles placed outfielder Colton Cowser on the 10-day injured list Monday with a broken thumb suffered a day earlier in their loss at Toronto. Cowser, 25, finished runner-up in American League Rookie of the Year voting last year after hitting 25 homers and producing 3.1 WAR thanks to his elite contributions defensively.
