Scouting Report

Assets
  • Pounds hitters with blazing heat and throws them off balance with a strong curveball. His left-handed heat makes him tough against left-handed hitters.
Flaws
  • He's prone to bouts of wildness and needs to develop much more stamina as a starter. He could also refine his change-up a bit.
Career Potential
  • A decent bullpen/rotation swing man.
