Scouting Report

Assets
  • Can throw strikes with his mid-90's heat, curveball and change-up. His size can intimidate opposing hitters. Is a versatile pitcher.
Flaws
  • Has now had two surgeries on his arm, so durability is a concern. Lacks quality pitches when behind in the count. Command is an issue.
Career Potential
  • A spot-starter/long reliever type.
