Bowles

6/17/14 - 5-foot-10, 170-pound prospect uses short to medium arm action through varying arm slots from low ¾ to high ¾, ability to throw strikes from all arm slots, fastball sat 82-84 touching 85 with some arm-side run when he drops down, breaking ball sat 73-74 with sharp/late break, likes to drop down on his 77-78 mph changeup which produces good sink and fade on the pitch.  Bowles is an interesting prospect on the mound with the varying arm slots with the potential for more velocity with his quick arm.
As a position player, shows solid middle infield actions with soft hands and good lateral movement in both directions, has a quick exchange with short arm action, showed good arm strength at 83 mph across the infield with carry.  At the plate, hits from an open stance and squares front side with a short stride, slight uphill path to the baseball, good lower half torque in swing, showed bat speed with 89 mph tee exit velocity, ran 4.65 down the first base line, went 1-for-4 in game play with a double smoked down the left field line, interesting prospect with two-way potential at the next level.
