Matt Bowman Opts Out Of Twins Deal
Briefly

The 33-year-old Bowman had been pitching well with the Saints and exercised an opt-out clause over the weekend. Minnesota had until today to add him to the 40-man roster but have instead opted to let Bowman become a free agent.
He inked a minor league pact with Minnesota back in January, was selected to the big league roster in mid-April, and wound up pitching 7 2/3 solid innings out of the 'pen. Bowman yielded only two runs in that first stretch, though his command was quite shaky.
He's now a free agent once again. It's a fairly dizzying sequence that's emblematic of the paths many journeymen of this ilk walk over the course of a given season. Bowman has pitched for six different teams in parts of six MLB seasons.
