Scouting Report

Assets
  • May still own the best change-up in the bigs. Hides the ball very well in his wind-up, causing batters to swing late on the fastball or early on the change.
Flaws
  • Hitters key in on a first-pitch fastball, and usually drive it when they get it. Isn't as overpowering as before and has struggled in the playoffs.
Career Potential
  • One of the greatest closers ever.
