Game Performance

Notes

Comments

9/24/21

Bowen showcased a more controlled, impressive arsenal in relief. The 5-foot-11, 165-pound former PBR Future Gamer bumped his fastball up to 85 mph and spun two distinct breaking balls rather easily around the zone. He possesses one of the highest ceilings in the state, given the physical projection left to come with his frame and the innate aptitude to spin he possesses.
