The Toronto Blue Jays are reportedly showing interest in Pittsburgh Pirates second baseman Brandon Lowe, a power-hitting infielder who has hit 66 home runs over the past two seasons.
According to a report from Yahoo Sports, the Blue Jays are among the teams monitoring Lowe's situation as they look to add offensive firepower to their lineup. The 29-year-old left-handed hitter has established himself as one of the game's premier power threats at the second base position since joining the Pirates.
Lowe's 66 home runs over the last two campaigns rank among the highest totals for a middle infielder in Major League Baseball, making him an attractive target for clubs seeking run production. The Blue Jays, who have been active in the trade and free-agent markets this offseason, could view Lowe as a key addition to bolster their infield depth and lineup balance.
