Scouting Report

Assets
  • Has always had a successful strikeout rate throughout his minor-league career, and that should continue in the bigs.
Flaws
  • Walks have always been an issue, so he must control the strike zone better in order to last as a big-league pitcher.
Career Potential
  • A solid back-of-the-rotation starter.
