It's actually incredible how all of our starters are injured. I'm really excited about Lowder. I hope he has a good debut. I also hope they don't just get one start and send him back down. If they are promoting him now, I want it to be for development, not to fill a start. We aren't making the playoffs this season, so they should treat this as a development opportunity and just give him the final month of the season in the majors (unless he just bombs hard, then maybe send him down if he's clearly not ready).
