Jimmy Bowden is a 2023 OF/RHP/1B with a 6-0 178 lb. frame from Pearland, TX who attends Pearland. Medium frame with present lower half strength and room to physically mature. Primary outfielder, aggressive approach into the fielding process, clean funnel and gather, maintaining momentum into and through release fairly well. Showed developing arm strength with low, online throws recorded up to 83 MPH from the outfield. Secondary right-handed pitcher, fairly simple operation, quick paced leg lift into athletic lower half movements down the slope, working into a high 3/4 's arm slot. Command was slightly spotty early on, found it as the outing went, fastball worked in the low-to-mid 70s, flashing a loose breaking ball that varied in shape at 66 MPH. Also took part in the first baseman workout, showing an aggressive approach with deliberate footwork and present arm strength recorded up to 81 MPH. Right-handed hitter; hits from a wide, slightly open stance with a hanging leg lift trigger for timing and a high hand set. Middle-of-the field approach with consistent bat-to-ball skills, present bat speed and flashes of loud contact to the pull-side. Plenty of projection remaining with the opportunity to add strength and mature. Excellent Student.
