The Naturals announced that Bowlan was placed on this list retro dated as of April, 21st. With this being dated the 21st, Bowlan will be available, at the earliest, on April 28th.   

We had the chance to speak to Naturals manager, Tommy Shields, post-game on Saturday night and he stated that the team projected he would miss one start. The team has much confidence in Bowlan to make a return and get back to work on the mound. Bowlan had his best start of the season, on Thursday, before being pulled.
