Remember, power rating is not necessarily how many homers you can hit. He can hit it out the other way and he has hit some serious bombs.

his ability to actually get the bat on the ball, or to attack the pitch in his happy zone is what prevents him from hitting 20+ homers, not his actual power.

I can think of a couple of reasons why Bowker is not up yet... - g-drive 2009-07-02 10:25:50 (108 views)

He's batting .313 vs lefties. - glass half empty 2009-07-02 10:42:45 (63 views)

but much less power, which is what he would be here for - g-drive 2009-07-02 11:31:36 (56 views)

Sandoval hasn't hit much power against lefties too. - glass half empty 2009-07-02 11:54:27 (54 views)

They are not going to play Bowker at first. Sabean said as much. - starburst 2009-07-02 12:53:50 (19 views)

I'm not sure that Lewis has moderate power - shikantaza 2009-07-02 10:42:06 (22 views)

Does Lewis have any options left? If not that's a pretty good reason why he hasn't been sent down - Calvin and Hobbs 2009-07-02 08:05:58 (57 views)

You're assuming that Bowker is limited to right field - glass half empty 2009-07-02 10:38:28 (47 views)

no, I think he was assuming that Bochy would not take ABs from Winn or Rowand - g-drive 2009-07-02 11:41:10 (20 views)

I don't see how Bowker would take ABs from Rowand. - glass half empty 2009-07-02 11:59:19 (18 views)

he said you have to sit Nate, you said you are assuming he would have to play RF, I said... - g-drive 2009-07-02 12:07:09 (38 views)

I think Bowker needs to be given a legit chance on the big league roster - The Lucky Cap 2009-07-01 22:02:44 (85 views)
