Matt Bowman

The New York Yankees have signed pitcher Matt Bowman to a minor-league contract.

Fantasy Impact

It's an interesting signing considering Bowman hasn't pitched professionally since the 2019 season. He underwent Tommy John surgery in 2020 and missed the 2021 and 2022 seasons afterwards. Nonetheless, the 31-year-old owns a solid 4.02 ERA/3.67 FIP across 183 career big-league appearances between the Cardinals and Reds organizations.

Matt Bowman, who's been out since late July with a right elbow strain, will undergo Tommy John surgery this week.

Fantasy Impact

Bowman did not make an appearance in 2020 and his 2021 prospects aren't looking good, either, as it will take quite a bit of time for him to heal and rehab.

Fantasy Impact

Bowman is dealing with a right elbow sprain and was placed on the injured list Thursday. He was originally optioned, but due the elbow injury was placed on the IL instead. Bowman currently has no timetable and it unclear when he will be ready to return. The 29-year-old has not appeared in a game in 2020.

Matt Bowman (elbow) threw a 35-pitch bullpen on Tuesday.

Fantasy Impact

Bowman dealt with elbow soreness early on in summer camp but is doing much better. He's expected to serve in middle relief for Cincinnati this season.

Matt Bowman pitched one inning allowing one run on two hits and one strikeout.

Fantasy Impact

Bowman has been really struggling this year after posting 21 holds in 2017. Bowman has no fantasy value now and should be left on the wire.
