Scouting Report

Assets
  • His fastball can reach 97 m.p.h., and he adds a devastating curve and a very strong change-up to his impressive arsenal. Induces plenty of groundballs, since his fastball has a ton of movement and sinking action. Has amazing command and poise.
Flaws
  • Can get a little flustered with runners aboard and struggles to keep them at bay. Also gets first-inning jitters on occasion. Left-handed hitters show a little more power against him.
Career Potential
  • Franchise pitcher with unlimited upside.
