  • Has an electric arm and a great pitchers' frame. He's also a tremendous athlete for a pitcher. Can be used as both a starter or reliever.
Flaws
  • Must become more consistent in his mechanics, since it's hindered his development. Lacks stamina as a starter and may not be able to dominate enough as a reliever.
Career Potential
  • Versatile right-hander in search of his big-league niche.
