Amateur career

Owens attended Edison High School in Huntington Beach, California.[1] He earned the Cal-Hi Sports Mr. Baseball State Player of the Year Award in 2011, after posting a 12–1 record with a 1.15 earned run average (ERA) and three saves, while striking out 140 batters in 91⅔ innings of work.[1] He also was named a 2011 Louisville Slugger High School All-American and earned 2011 Sunset League Pitcher of the Year honors for the two consecutive years.[1]

Professional career

Boston Red Sox

The Boston Red Sox selected Owens in the first round (36th overall) of the 2011 MLB Draft.[1] He signed with them on August 15, 2011[1] for a $1.5 million signing bonus.[2] Owens made his professional debut in 2012 with the Greenville Drive of the Class A South Atlantic League (SAL), sporting a 12–5 record and a 4.87 ERA in 23 games, including 130 strikeouts and 47 walks in 101+23 innings.[3] In addition, he finished fourth in the SAL for the most strikeouts, while tying for fourth in wins.[1]

Entering 2013, Owens was ranked as the eighth best prospect in the Red Sox organization and ranked 77th in the MLB.com Top 100 Prospects list.[4] He promoted to the Salem Red Sox of the Class A-Advanced Carolina League on April 2.[1] On July 17, he struck out a season-high tying 10 in six innings, while combining with two other pitchers to deliver the first no-hitter in franchise history in a 6–0 win over the Frederick Keys.[5] Overall, he posted an 8–5 record and a 2.92 ERA over 20 starts for Salem,[3] including a hitless streak of 19⅓ innings, gaining a promotion to the Portland Sea Dogs of the Class AA Eastern League on August 1.[6]

With the Sea Dogs, Owens went 3–1 with a 1.78 ERA, striking out 46 in just 30⅓ innings over six starts.[3] He was a Carolina League Mid-Season All-Star,[7] as well as SoxProspects.com's 2013 Pitcher of the Year.[8] Additionally, he made the Baseball America Minor League All-Star Team.[8] Owens started the 2014 season by pitching a rain-shortened six-inning no-hitter for the Sea Dogs.[9] Making 20 starts in Portland, Owens compiled a record of 14–4 with 3 complete games in 121 innings, with 126 strikeouts and an earned run average of 2.60.[3] He was promoted to the Pawtucket Red Sox of the Class AAA International League on August 2, 2014.[10] He was a mid-season and post-season All-Star with Portland as well as Eastern League Pitcher of the Year.[1] Owens was invited to Spring Training with the Red Sox in 2015[1] but began the season with Pawtucket.[11] He was 3–8 with a 3.16 ERA in 21 AAA starts.[3]

The Red Sox promoted Owens to the major leagues on August 4.[12] He made his debut by striking out the first batter he faced in the game, Jacoby Ellsbury.[13] and went on to allow three runs in five innings to take the loss against the New York Yankees.[13] He collected his first MLB win in his second start on August 9 against the Detroit Tigers at Comerica Park, allowing one run through five innings.[14] He made 11 starts in 2015, with a 4–4 record and 4.57 ERA.[15] He spent most of the 2016 season with Pawtucket, where he was 10–7 with a 3.92 ERA in 24 starts[3] but he also made five starts for the Red Sox in the majors, and was 0–2 with a 6.95 ERA in those appearances.[15]

In 2017, Owens battled with his command and spent the entire season in the minors,[16] split between Pawtucket (14 starts) and Portland (12 starts) and was a combined 7–11 with a 4.21 ERA.[3] Owens was removed from the Red Sox 40-man roster on December 5, 2017 and placed on waivers.[17]
