Scouting Report

Assets
  • Has a workhorse mentality on the mound and bears down in the clutch. Uses his excellent curveball as his out-pitch. Is a tremendous leader.
Flaws
  • His fastball is somewhat straight and hittable. Throws too many strikes and doesn't fool hitters enough. Needs to avoid the big inning to be successful.
Career Potential
  • A decent No. 4 or 5 starter.
