Scouting Report

Assets
  • Still has good zip on his fastball. Also mixes in a curve and change-up that has made him even more effective against right-handed batters.
Flaws
  • His insistence on relying on high fastballs can blow up in his face. He is prone to the long ball and also struggles to hold runners on.
Career Potential
  • A solid left-handed setup man.
