I asked for it in another thread and looks like someone else was smart. Bowker has a great left handed swing and needs to find another position in a system with enough OFers. Hopefully he will continue to get more practice and play some first in blowout games.John Bowker worked out at first base before Monday's game.
The Giants are toying with the idea of converting Bowker to first a la Dan Ortmeier. Ortmeier's struggles at the plate have caused him to focus on hitting form the right side, leaving the Giants looking for a left-handed option at first. The left-handed Bowker has two home runs and seven RBI in his first two major league games.
