Threw Today For Team Reps, Decision To Come Next WeekFEB 6th, 2013-Former Lexington Legend and Lancaster Jethawk RHP Jason Chowning threw off the mound for team representatives from the Milwaukee Brewers today, bidding to return to professional baseball.
Chowning last pitched for the High-A Jethawks in 2012 before arm troubles led to his release by the Astros. Milwaukee has been in contact with the former Astros prospect since October of last year, setting up the throwing session today through one of Chowning's former coaches.
"Went good...threw real well. (Got my) fingers crossed. Arm feels good; I'm ready to go", said Chowning, who also posted to his Facebook account concerning today's workout.
I'll be posting updates on this as they become available. I'm definitely one of many pulling for him.
