This is definitely a move to address the upcoming California road trip against the big bad pacific teams with important points on the line, after seeing how we were physically outmatched the last time through. Now having Colborne and Shore in should provide a boost in the physical area. I don't think Bouma on that line is a fluke, either. They want to head out on the trip with a big, gritty line that can outmatch the opposition's that they can throw out there when they need to.
