Scouting Report

Assets
  • Has overpowering stuff and the makeup for a late-inning relief role. Is at his best when he's limited to one inning of work so he holds nothing back.
Flaws
  • Will have a few brain cramps from time to time, in terms of pitch location, which can lead to a bad inning against him. May be exposed if on the mound for too long.
Career Potential
  • Excellent closer.
