Scouting Report

Assets
  • Has a nice slider to go with a 90-m.p.h. fastball, change-up and curve. Is a tough competitor and possesses pretty good control.
Flaws
  • Left-handed hitters find him a little easier to hit. Needs to do a better job when his pitch count is over 80 to solidify his starter status.
Career Potential
  • A solid mid-rotation starter.
