Oddly intrigued by that move. His September call up with the Blue Jays pretty much sucked, but he had a damn good year in AAA considering it was only his third as a position player. Ankiel took way longer to be big league ready.
Decent depth move, but he definitely is a candidate for a backup outfielder spot on the Opening Day roster. I've heard that he's got a cannon for an arm much like Ankiel. Could be good for late inning defense.

We wanted him, but there's such a log jam in the outfield here in Toronto. Loewan is interesting. He put up good numbers in AAA, but he played in Vegas where EVERYBODY hits. To me, Loewan is an AAAA player.
