Player Notes

March 2, 2008
Josh Towers pitched three scoreless frames Sunday against the A's, giving up two hits while striking out three. A candidate for the Rox rotation, Towers has given up one run in five spring innings.

January 7, 2008
The Rockies have signed Josh Towers to a one-year deal with a mutual option for 2009. Only $400,000 is guaranteed for 2008, but Towers will make a prorated $1.8 million as soon as he is added to the active 25-man roster, according to the Denver Post. He can earn an additional $1.35 million in incentives based on appearances and innings pitched. The option is for $3 million. Towers is expected to compete for the last spot in the rotation but could also fill a long relief role in the bullpen.

December 13, 2007
The Blue Jays declined to offer Josh Towers a contract for the 2008 season, making him a free agent. Towers posted a 5.38 ERA in 25 games (15 starts) last year. It remains to be seen where he'll end up, but he could be a league-average pitcher in the National League.

November 21, 2007
The Blue Jays intend to bring Josh Towers back to compete for a rotation spot next year, according to the Toronto Sun. Towers is arbitration eligible and earned $2.9 million in '07 in the final year of a two-year, $5.2 million contract. He posted a 5.38 ERA in 25 games (15 starts) last year, and there's little reason to expect things to get any better in 2008.

August 10, 2007
Josh Towers is going to the bullpen with A.J. Burnett set to rejoin the rotation Sunday, according to the AP. Towers is 0-3 with a 7.47 ERA in his past three starts.
