Scouting Report

Assets
  • Displays plenty of guile on the mound. Throws strikes and doesn't get easily rattled when he's hit hard. Still owns upside.
Flaws
  • Doesn't own a strikeout pitch, and as a result doesn't miss enough bats. Tends to miss high in the strike zone, which is a no-no.
Career Potential
  • A mid-rotation starter, but not a great one.
