Scouting Report

TPG East II 

Bower has a thinner and athletic 6-foot-1, 160-pound frame. Stance starts open from the left side with a smooth load back and then lands slightly closed after a toe tap. Hands start higher while working down to the shoulders and creating some separation during the load. Slight bar in the lead arm and a level barrel path through the zone while posting a top exit velo of 87 mph with line drive tendencies. Bower also showed the ability to cover some ground in the outfield by posting a laser 7.17 60-yd time. Sits back on approach to the ball and fields it deep. Slower exchange with average hands defensively. Outfield velocity of 71 mph.
