Travis Bowyer RHP, Rochester Red Wings Age: 23
Drafted: 20th round, 1999, Liberty HS; Bedford Va.
ERA G GS W L SV IP H R ER HR BB SO
Rochester 1.36 30 0 2 1 16 39.2 19 6 6 1 18 55
Three years into his career, Bowyer wasn't considered much of a prospect. But
a rigorous offseason conditioning program implemented after the 2001 season at
Rookie-level Elizabethton created a 225-pound frame, and his velocity spiked
to 98 mph as a result. His heavy fastball has great late life, and he uses his
changeup to keep hitters off-balance. A starter for much of his career, Bowyer
was moved to the bullpen in 2002 and has flourished, posting his best numbers
yet this season at Triple-A Rochester. His secondary numbers have also improved
with the jump to Rochester, with more than a strikeout per inning.
世界隊
Francisco Liriano LHP, Rochester Red Wings Age: 21
Signed: Dominican Republic (Giants), 2000.
ERA G GS W L SV IP H R ER HR BB SO
New Britain 3.64 13 13 3 5 0 76.2 70 36 31 6 26 92
Rochester 1.50 1 1 0 0 0 6.0 1 1 1 1 2 8
Liriano was the least known of the three players Minnesota received in the A.J.
Pierzynski deal but could end up being the steal of that trade. Considering
Joe Nathan was an all-star closer in 2004, that's really saying something.
After two years of shoulder problems, Liriano stayed healthy last season and
flashed a brilliant package that had Twins scouts daydreaming of another Johan
Santana. He pitches at 93-95 mph, topping out at 97. He also has a plus change-
up and a big-breaking curveball to complement his heater. A former outfielder
whom the Giants converted to the mound after signing, Liriano is still raw,
both in terms of experience and build. But he made the jump to Triple-A this
season and showed poise early on, whiffing eight in just six innings for the
Red Wings.
