I remember Keith Law seeing Bowden pitch in Portland and writing a pretty brutal review. And this is when Bowden was tearing up AA. Im starting to worry he was right.

So if they win tonight, what does the team or NESN post-game show plan on doing? Will everyone just sit around in the clubhouse and watch the Rangers-Angels game? It probably won't end until midnight.


Michael Bowden is solving this problem for us.

I'll be excited in two or three years when Bowden is really major league ready, which he's not.

I'm still quite optimistic that he'll turn out alright.

Fuck! 4-0 and we haven't even got an AB yet! His fastball is just grooving in there with NO movement whatsoever. Easy just to sit and wait for that and punch it up and out. This will be a short night for Bowden.

Tito does. If he wasn't constrained by a 40 man roster, could you imagine the lineups he would trot out there?

He projects as nothing better as a 4 in a best-case scenario. His stuff doesn't look like major league caliber to me.

I suppose it is difficult to suddenly discover a few hours before the game that you are the starter. But it can't be this difficult.

The only possible way that happens is

A. The ball was juiced to get attendance up in a bad economy

B. Steroid testing is a sham and Aaron hill is juiced.

C. Random Chance (given enough AB we all could hit 35 HR against MLB pitching)

Warning, A& B are conspiracy theories.
