Scouting Report

Assets
  • Is highly intelligent, both on and off the field, and uses those smarts to pitch around hitters. His cut fastball can be an effective out pitch.
Flaws
  • Has a tendency to nibble a tad too much when on the mound. At his worst, he leaves the ball up in the strike zone and gets tattooed.
Career Potential
  • Versatile depth pitcher and good teammate.
