Scouting Report

Assets
  • A big, strong pitcher with a very fluid and consistent delivery. A cool customer on the mound who hits his spots, resulting in a nice K-to-BB ration. A workhorse.
Flaws
  • Despite his durability and accuracy Haren could stand to use fewer total pitches. Sometimes he can be a little too fine in trying to hit corners.
Career Potential
  • A top-of-rotation stud with Cy Young makeup.
