Red Sox number five prospect Henry Owens is expected to make his Major League debut on Tuesday at Yankee Stadium. Owens, a tall lefty, has high expectations from the Red Sox coaching staff. The 36th overall pick in the 2011 June Amateur Draft, Owens displayed signs of success at the professional level right out of the gate. The southpaw out of a California high school went 12-5 while striking out over 11.5 batters per nine in his first season as a pro. Since then, Owens has not posted a K% below 20.6% in his career.
