jumed on hitters due to deceptiverelease; flat when elevated; type of fastball
that will need to be spotted consistently at highest level;will change eye
level; tended to pitch middle-away to righties; will need to stay on hands
when pitching inside to righties; can work too up when not finishing.

Solid-average command; displays arm-side fade; can also turn over to glove
side; quality depth and action to offering; excellent arm-speed; seamless
release to fastball; bat missing offering at highest level; throws for strikes;
confident to use at any point in the count; can leave in middle of the plate

Fringe-average command; big, slow bend; not a lot of power to pitch - on the
soft side; could stand to throw harder to get bats started quicker; hitters can
sit back on it; used sparingly in the outing; will alter shape; more of a
change of pace than chase pitch; don't project it to miss a lot of bats.
Overall
Owens' fastball velocity was on the pedestrian side in this outing, but the
tall left-hander used his body well to consistently throw downhill when
delivering the offering. Throughout the start, he stayed on top of the ball and
was able to replicate his release point with the majority of his heaters. This
enabled Owens to throw to spots in the lower tier of the strike zone, where the
plane he created forced hitters to get on top of the ball.
While the pitcher did get some swings-and-misses when elevated with his
fastball, I don't see the pitch being effective in this area against big league
hitters. Owens is deceptive overall, with the ball seaming to jump out of his
body at the last instance, but he's likely to get hurt often working in this
area. I do have some concerns about how the fastball is going to play if this
was a peak representation of the command.
fastball guise, and hitters consistently swung over the top of it. My feel is
that this offering will continue to play as the lefty advances further. The
deception, along with the separation in velocity, will force even the better of
hitters to commit early. Owens' sprinkled his curveball in towards the end of
the start, and I'm not big on the present look of the pitch. The lack of power
will give major league hitters a chance to recover even when they have
committed early.
Owens will need to demonstrate solid-average-to-plus command of his fastball on
a consistent basis to fully reach his ceiling. In this outing, it looked like
the pitcher was focusing hard on finishing his delivery and working down in the
zone. The execution showed. There is a finer margin of error here given the
profile of the overall repertoire. On nights when Owens' fastball is just a bit
off, it is likely to be difficult. I see the prospect over the long-haul
projecting towards the back of a rotation, where he can provide a lot of
innings and value as a reliable, complimentary piece of a good staff.
