not gonna happen. sorry.
I don't think he really expects it to happen, he's more or less just suggesting it as he sees it could be benificial to the team. Throwing it out there for discussion.
Jerry Owens (24) is having a great year at B-Ham.
.339 BA, .398 OBP(which means his OBP is a little batting average heavy) 40BB/58SO, 31 SB, 137 H, 1 HR, 3 3B, 16 2B, 73 R, 38 RBI, 404 AB.
It could be interesting calling him up straight from AA. Francour is a much higher touted prospect, I believe he's in the BA America top 15 but Jerry Owens could do something for this club. However there's about no chance that we see him this season.
Not to mention the fact that we'd have to purchase his contract and put him on the 25/40.
