Scouting Report

Assets
  • He can rack up the strikeouts thanks to a low-90's fastball with good movement. A nice slider retires left-handed hitters.
Flaws
  • Falls behind in the count a little too often, mainly due to shoddy command. Also walks a few too many batters.
Career Potential
  • A solid left-handed setup man.
