I would give Alden Cartwright the start Sunday. Bouman really has no out pitch. Cartwright at least has a plus curveball that people will chase.
I could see this, but it's basically a game you pitch with your whole bullpen. AC has that great curveball, but he doesn't throw that hard and really doesn't have an effective 3rd pitch yet. You don't want anybody to see him more than once, so that's 3 innings max for him at this point in his career.
After that you just have to piece together innings with the rest of your bullpen. I actually like the idea better than what we are doing on Sundays currently.
We'll have to see how he does tonight

I think Cartwright throws around 90. That's plenty hard enough. He's definitely got a plus curveball. And if we can get 3 solid innings out of him, I think most will be satisfied. I think he's plenty serviceable.

He hits 89-90 which is all Bouman hits.
