Scouting Report

Assets
  • He's a crafty southpaw with a good arsenal of pitches. Is very accurate in spotting his fastball, and adds a looping curve and great screwball--which is his out-pitch. Deceives hitters by looking away from home plate during his delivery.
Flaws
  • Whenever he loses focus and/or command, he gets hit hard. Doesn't have a dominant fastball. Also tends to be less effective if he's over-exposed.
Career Potential
  • Inconsistent lefty reliever.
  • AwardsNamed to the All-Star Game
