Bowden under investigation

[Post Count Padder]

According to SI.com's Melissa Segura:

 

A federal investigation into the skimming of signing bonuses given to baseball prospects from Latin America is looking at Washington Nationals general manager Jim Bowden as far back as 1994, when he was GM of the Cincinnati Reds, according to a baseball executive familiar with the investigation.

 

The Bowden investigation is linked to the David Wilder scandal by way of a scout named Jorge Oquendo. The Chicago Tribune just posted new details on Wilder this evening. Segura doesn't suggest it, but you have to think Bowden's job is in jeopardy.

I heard Jim Bowden was on steroids.

"If Bowden was a general contractor, he’d build houses with nine bedrooms, six garages, no bathrooms, and half a roof."
