Michael Bowden's put some decent starts in a row to bounce back from a rough April and May.
His season numbers aren't yet good, but he has gotten his ERA down to 4.39, if he puts another couple solid starts together over the next couple weeks he could get it below 4, which considering his tough start to the season is fairly remarkable.
He's gotta pretty much not struggle from here on out, but Bowden could be a factor as a potential callup by the All-Star Break if he keeps this string of great starts going, which also means he'll reaffirm his stock as a possible trade piece at the deadline -- a definite good thing considering the fact that we probably will need to make some kind of deadline move this year.
Just for the record, the decision by soxprospects.com to drop Bowden all the way to #21 because of two bad months was short-sighted and reactionary, and reflects poorly on that website, especially when Lars Anderson, after 2 straight years of upper-level mediocricy, is squarely at #2.
